Hello all-
I have a 5x8 utility trailer with 12 inch wheels and 5.30x12 tires.
It's almost 18 years old with original tires, and a couple of years ago, in an effort at temporary frugality that I knew I would probably regret (but where I needed to use it on the highway) I installed "slime" in the weathered looking tires.
I now want to do it right and replace the tires.
I've changed tires on other things like rototillers and mowers, so am confident that I can swear my way through getting the old tires off and new ones on.
But if I understand the slime correctly, it is bad news when you go to replace a tire.
Any suggestions on best way to approach this?
Thanks!r
