I've got a couple of folks who have emailed me looking for tires for their Besco folding trailer.  Mine are "OK" but are showing a little bit of dry-rot, so before I put this trailer on the road at highway speeds, I probably need a set myself.  They are 3.5" x 8" and need to be capable of highway speeds.  Scooter tires maybe?     If anyone knows where these tires can be found, I'll spread the word.

I've had two different people email me about tires, and I've seen a thread on the samba about these trailers and the question about tires came up there too . . . somebody on that thread suggested Coker's but they didn't have anything that would fit.  These trailer's are pretty rare, but they are 30 years old and all seem to need tires and no one seems to be able to locate any.

What's your shop's phone #?  I'll see if can send you some business.

Always nice to get some business going for a show sponsor and club member

I should have kept the secret stash of tires to myself . . . one guy was ready to sell his trailer for $200 if he couldn't find tires. He just sent me an email --

thank you so very much  === i  got the 2 he had in stock and he can order more=-you are  =life saver=i going to  put a small truck cross bed tool box on it for the trip and as i  already have it==will hold alll my camping gear and more==it is poly material so it is  light-will put it so long ways is  front to back==now i can use bike for  food shopping too as the  saddle bags are too small  and light  for  food items.==been trying to find these tires since i  brough it=ya ya ya ==hooo weeee==thank  you soooo muchhhhhhhhhhhhh.==karl m. wagner===merry christmas====opps===happy new years===well now i can go ahead and make the  trailer hook-up for my sportster[1200c=2005==got  dresser= 412  4"travel rear schocks /memphis fats shield/givi 36 liter  hard bags.==im ready to go in june=west or bust=he he he

I kind'a get the feeling he won't take $200 for it now!   

I'm still trying to save up the money to put tires on the one I've already got! My Harley golf cart needs tires too.  So does Homer.  I'm still trying to get over putting tires on my S-10 and Single Wheel trailer (the tube for the single wheel cost twice what the tire did    ).  I don't need anything eles that rolls and needs tires.   

Of course, that's never stopped me before . . .        

And I've got to give credit where credit is due.  I would have never thought about asking about scooter tires on my own . . . Mike suggested that those looked like scooter tires when I had the trailer at Wally's one evening.
