ThanksThe wheels and tires look GREAT!
Got these at GSA auction for $25 for the set.
Stole them.

What's your process; is it by TM specs, or "homegrown"?I was surprised on how often I use the water trailer.
It’s getting close to that time now for it’s spring tank sterilization.

The solid rims are not the easiest to find.Following this as I also got 2 from gp in Mobile reasonable but I did not get to steal them
The rims are flat on the lug face not tapered. Curious as to which lug nut will work. I have a m107 just older than the m149 but I think the same running gear. My thought was to see what lug nuts are used on my m105a3 and go that direction.
Yes, those are the ones. Tm shows both sides are right. I will need to find left hand equivalent of those washer/nuts to fit the older trailers.Here are the nuts that are on my 105a3 and 200 generator trailer

No alignment collar of any kind they are 1.5" outside I've had a couple off of the 105 when we went to Kentucky to get the gen set on the 200 so we had some spare tires for the trip but completely forget if they're all standard right hand threads and the pics I took today were both the same sideYes, those are the ones. Tm shows both sides are right. I will need to find left hand equivalent of those washer/nuts to fit the older trailers.
Do those lugs have an inside collar to center in the hole?
Are they 1-1/2 outer diameter?
They will love that I’m sure!!!Then go camping with the kids!
Your first post, DavidM310?New wheels and tires on my 1997 M1102 as the tires have a DOT date code of 147. I’ve read that in 2000 date codes changed to a 4 digit so this would mean a 1997 manuf date? Also purchased a spare. Tires fit flush with trailer and was able to reuse original conical 9/16-18 lug nuts except for 1 that was cross threaded. Hope this helps someone.
Yes first post and thank you. I’m using it to haul camping gear (tent, chairs, firewood, water) behind my 1999 Lexus LX470 aka Land Cruiser. Wife, 2 kids, and a Black Labrador so would like to keep the cabin free of gear as it gets crowded quickly.Your first post, DavidM310?
Excellent. Welcome Aboard!
Fine looking trailer there. What kind of loads are you hauling?
