Re: [VAL] tire size
Tom,
According to the 1954 brochure that I have for my 1954 29' Double Door
Liner, the standard tire is a 700-15 LT tire. I would guess that the
standard tire for your Cruisette would be the same. Interesting about
the six lug wheels, as my Liner had only five lug wheels originally, I
have replaced them with six lug wheels. One 10x16.5 LT tire probably
has enough capacity for the entire trailer, and you are correct, they
are HEAVY. I would replace with the 700-15 LT or whatever is the metric
equivalent size.
