If the trailer is rated to carry 11,800 lbs and the wheels are rated at 2600 ea. that comes to 10,400. I'm just saying there is no room for error. A better wheel should be in order.

It is my understanding that AL-KO used the same 3" tube on their 2000, 5200, and 7000 lb rated axles. That is what they told me today. I still have to be aware of the 11800 GVW of the trailer.

Ok Dumb question here. How did / do you know if a weld in your wheel breaks? I am guessing it throws you out of balance and does a wobble thing, or is it worse than that? Just wondering in case ....

These wheels all created a slow pinhole leak at the end of a weld and would take a number of hours to go down. After driving for 4 or 5 hours we would stop for the day or have get gas and I would check tires. Shure enough a tire was going down. At one point I had two at the same time go flat overnight while in a RV park in Junction, Texas. Fortunately the RV park owner brought his compressor over and pumped up tires and I got to a small tire shop in that little berg. I feel fortunate that we were always able to get to a shop or get pumped up long enough to find a shop close. All of the brakes were with a 20 day period March 20th to May 10th this past two months.
