    Upgrade Wheels and Tires on boat trailer

    If anyone has upgraded their boat trailer wheels and tires. Would you mind telling me what you had and what you went to? Especially those with a Skeeter ZX 225.

    Going to upgrade soon and want to know what I can go to and what tires everyone went to. On facebook someone told me a a 16 inch rims with a 215 60R16 99XL tire.

    Thanks for any input.

    It depends on the fender clearance. If your trailer has a Spring axle, it much more difficult to raise the clearance. A Torsion axle is much easier.
