I would trust an x chock over the plastic chocks that so many seem to use. Properly done, the trailer will not move. I don't know what tires you are using but if your trailer moves it was not tight enough in the first place. I'm happy you're so amal retentive and read instructions and warnings thoroughly, but the reality is that the x chocks work fine as a chock. You are scared to try them because you read a warning...nothing wrong with that i suppose.
Boy, you're classic :S - offensively argumentative to the end even though the simple fact is that ALL tires shrink noticeably as they cool. This has nothing to do with what tires I have OR tires that anyone else has ... they're rubber, and rubber tires shrink in diameter as they cool. What so difficult about this technical fact that you don't seem to understand? :h On this issue you're absolutely incorrect - BAL X-Chocks do not "work fine as a chock" AND the manufacturer Norco makes that fact quite clear. Be dumb as you want about your own use, I merely continue this discussion so others reading your misinformed opinion about this product aren't tricked into making the same mistake. :R
Well my brother has the Michelin ribs and they don't shrink any amount to allow movement, just because you don't like to try it this does work. His tires are locked together and nothing moves. I don't care what you have read, this works. I use 4x4 blocks, guess what they work too. Your tires must shrink a lot or you do not tighten the chocks any amount.
