Agreed. He has put a lot of work into that trailer and it shows. If I was in the market for a tire trailer, this is the one I'd buy.

I got the back off mudflaps. I am afraid if I put em on I won't want to sell it.
Maybe I should put them on the S2K.
Happy New Years everyone.

Can this fit 4x275 tires?
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem

It's amaizing how you both have/had the same wheels and the same person designed your patios where you park them. (Right down to the loose bricks!) :lol:

Looks nice, if only I had a place to park it. Just got a hitch for the Miata for Christmas, now I'm looking for a Tire Tail.

Looking for one too, but it does not seem as if they make the tire tail anymore? Also what is the deal when you have your tires on the tire tail ,
brake lights you can see about half, but no license plate, soooo?

My only concern with the tire tail (which I considered) is the effect on safe street handling with the added weight that high and far back. The best part of my tire trailer is not having to unpack everything at the end of the day. Roll it into the garage and get back to it later. Plus I can carry all my tools, shelter, etc.

Don't disagree with this concept. My problem is I already have a full 2 car garage, with 2 cars parked in the driveway, and one on the street, in a HOA who's CC&R's forbids cars parked in the driveway or on the street by residents. I'm already breaking the rules, don't need a trailer adding to my 3 improperly parked cars.

Bringing this thread back on topic, it stopped raining so I snapped a few pics. Look at all that lockable storage!! Four jackstands and a floorjack fit in the center box. The rod that goes through the tires accepts a lock too.
