Default Open Trailex- Tire rack / wheel placement
Hey guys,

Preparing for my inaugural trailering experience for the first track event of the year!

When placing spare wheels on tire rack, should I place a pair of wheels on each extremity outboard of the rack or all for centered on the rack?

Thanks in advance for any and all advice !

David

David,

You can rent out some wheel space on your rack to even out the weight ... lol
Dwane already reserved a spot on my trailer

Cheers !

It is not enough weight to make much of a difference. Put em wherever you like. Or wherever you have the best visibility.

My concern was more aerodynamic.
Facing a 5 hour fuel sucking drive.
