Re: [A/S] Trailer Wheels

Chuck, the easy way to raise a tire with a dual axle trailer is to run the 
good tire up on a block to raise the "bad" tire off the ground.  I have had to 
utilize a tire store twice with my Airstream and I used the block technique 
both times.  I don't trust a "stranger" to jack up my trailer.  I could just see 
them jacking the trailer up by placing the jack under an axle or placing the 
jack in the wrong spot under the trailer and punching a hole through the belly 
pan.

You made an excellent point on making sure that the tire wrench fits.  The 
lug nuts should be checked on a regular basis, especially when a wheel has been 
removed.  The tire shop should also use a torque wrench to replace the lug 
nuts.
