What's wrong
THE WHEEL TECH WHEEL DOES NOT SEAT PROPERLY AGAINST THE HUB CAUSING INABILITY TO FULLY TIGHTEN THE WHEEL LUG NUTS.
The risk
IF THE LUG NUTS ARE NOT TIGHTENED THE WHEEL CAN SEPARATEFROM THE TRAILER DURING TRAVEL CAUSING DANGER TO THE TOW VEHICLE AND OTHERVEHICLES IN THE ROADWAY.
The fix
REPLACE BOTH WHEELS AND TIRES WITH WHEELS AND TIRES FROM A DIFFERENT DISTRIBUTOR WHICH WILL ALLOW PROPER FIT AGAINST THE HUB AND COMPLETE TIGHTENING OF THE LUG NUTS.
