Hmm....<br />Scratching chin.<br />Maybe if you put the flat spot on the top it wouldn't leak?

If you work very quickly, even if you have to change the tire, you still may be able to save some of the air! :rolleyes:

Re: tire flat

Never mind Octo, at least you will have your trailer ready for safe towing plus, launching and recovering and what ever you want to do in between.<br /><br />If the tire was that old (87 vintage) then it was exactly 1 year older than the tires I just replaced last month on my trailer and you managed to get 1 more season out of your old set then I did with mine.<br /><br />The dry rot in the trailer rubber was very bad and the fact that my old tires still held up the boat after the winter suprised me. <br />One strange thing is that the 14 old bias ply Goodyear tires still had 2/32 more tread depth than the brand new G.Year Marathon radial's that I had put on. New tires only have 10/32's. The old tire's must have had 16/32 (1/2")or more new!<br /><br />Oh well, that's progress!
