The best hinge we have for your application is the 6" Wide Continuous Hinge - 1/2" Pin Diameter - Steel # MA32VR (8' long) or the # MA52VR (6' long). Since both of these hinges measure 6 inches wide, they give you plenty of space to weld on or bolt on to your trailer ramp. They also rotate a full 270 degrees for a full opening/closing range.

The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…
