Re: [A/S] Safari Spare



<< The correct wheel for an Airstream trailer, 
 must have a 2600 pound rating. Fords and Chevy's don't have that.>

What are Ford and Chev wheels rated at?  My trailer doesn't weigh as much as 
my Ford so I have to think the Ford wheels are rated as high.

< Secondly,  to buy a used wheel, without knowing it's rating or it's past 
history is really fool hardy. Taking a chance with your life, the lives of 
others,  property damage and the like, is simply not the thing to do.  >>

Lots of people buy used wheels.  I don't think used means anything is wrong 
with them.  If someone totals a brand new vehicle, the wheels aren't 
necessarily worthless.
