I got an unusual question. I am thinking of getting an enclosed trailer and having a hard time finding any around here that would fit my rig. So what is the smallest cheapest wheel tire combo available to just switch so it would fit in a trailer for travel.

Honestly, it is probably cheaper in the long run to order an enclosed trailer with extra height.

Got a set of atvs tires and wheels that are 18” tall. Came off a 250R. Bolt patten looks close.

Enclosed trailers are overrated for off road vehicles, unless you have other needs for one.

I would rather have enclosed to be able to store on the tools spare parts ect the I have to load and unload for every trip. It would save a significant amount of space in my shop as well and I can sleep in the trailer. The reason for wheels and tires would be I can find a lot of used trailers vs buy a horse trailer, toy hauler or new trailer. Usually it's just me 90 percent of the time I travel and ride so it doesn't need to be nice lol.

Given that info, suggest you start trolling racingjunk.com. If you take some time, you can find a used trailer with extra height.

Well I don't have a trailer yet, so I am not sure its about 84-86 inches tall as it sits now. I think Im gonna find some old stock wheels and just run out air and see how low I can get it. Depends on which trailer I find cheap first

Grab a set of 12” wheels. Screw the tires like they do slicks in drag racing to reduce the risk of breaking the bead.

Unless you live in the snow belt ! When you trailer in the winter your machine gets covered with slush and road salt and sand. I'd like to find an enclosed that my P1000-5 with tracks would fit in.
