Wheel Crack...Again...
Well, I FINALLY got the new rims this afternoon. Not what I expected. They are the "round hole" type, not like the ones I already have. Kinda disappointed, I was hoping they would match....

These are the new rims. Kinda wanted all of them to match, but I guess this will work.

I thought you were going to say they did it again...

Can you run those in the inside and the others on the outside?

Yeah.....probably run them on the outside, though....because of the tires on them. These have no nipples.

Well, at least the repair shop tried to do the right thing by you!

Yeah, they have been great, but I'd have to run these on one side together because of valve stem issues. That kills any idea of "tire rotation", or a flat....

Ask them to try to get you the correct rims.

Yeah, they said they would order the correct ones. Supposed to be in on Monday. If it wasn't below zero and snow on the way, I might be miffed. They really have done more then they needed to - I REALLY hated to complain about it. I have several people hollering because they need firewood hauled, but it will have to wait, I guess....

Single up with the wheels you have. I've hauled two face cord at time on singles hundreds of times. Singles do better on snow, imo.

I haul 4-5 bundles of firewood on pallets, each weighs in at just under 3000#. These are "pallet stock" that varies in thickness from 1/4"x 4" to 6"x4" - all 40" long. Oak, Hickory, Ash, etc, etc. Way too much for singles......Don't really want to make two trips....no money in that.
