Question:
If I buy Wheels and Tires separately can you mount the tires on the wheels?
asked by: Mike Z
Expert Reply:
We unfortunately do not have the ability to mount tires in house. I recommend taking them to a local tire shop to have the separate wheels and tires mounted. When mounting trailer tires to trailer wheels, there is a different type of balancing that is done than with a vehicle tire. I've attached an article to assist. You will want to make sure that the installer uses a pin plate adapter to balance them correctly.
If your wheels come with valve stems you will want to make sure they are rated for the psi required by the tires.
For 80 psi, I recommend the Americana High Pressure Rubber Snap-In Valve Stem - 1-1/2" Long - Up to 80 psi # AM20904
For 100 psi, I recommend the Americana High Pressure Rubber Snap-In Valve Stem - 1-1/4" Long - Up to 100 psi # AM20907
For over 100 psi or a metal look at any other psi, I recommend the Americana Metal, Bolt-In Valve Stem - 1-1/4" Long - Over 100 psi # AM20906
