Question:
I’m torn between the MXS67FR and MXS87FR. I like the black-and-machined aluminum design, but which one’s right for me?

Good question, Alan. The difference comes down to size and axle class. The # MXS67FR is the 15 inch 5-lug version for 3,500-lb axles and lighter trailers. The # MXS87FR is the 16 inch 6-lug setup for up to 6,000-lb axles on larger RVs or tandem utility trailers. Both feature the same sleek aluminum design and durable Maxxis radials that are pre-mounted and balanced.
What type of trailer are you outfitting? Do you currently have wheels and tires to go off?
