Heh. I saw H2O's rims at Minden. They apparently helped with his
sway problem *and* make him look cool. :-)

But probably make a rough ride even rougher for the glider inside the
trailer.

I'm curious about the relative resistance to road hazard damage provided
by a 75 series trailer-rated tire (typical on a glider trailer) and a 40
series tire that isn't trailer rated. It's hard for me to avoid every
rock, road debris, pot hole, and curb with my trailer.
