Will Trailer Fenders for 14 Inch Wheels Work with 18.5 x 8.5-8 Tires
Question:
Im currently in the process of replacing the fenders on an old utility trailer my father gave me. The wheels on it are size 18.5 x 8.5-8. Im currently looking at part #F008554 for a 14inch wheel. The reason is because it has a bottom width of 9.7. My questions is, do you think that size is suitable for the width of my tires leaving enough clearance or would you suggest another fender? Your help is appreciated. Thanks.

Expert Reply:
Fulton Single Axle Trailer Fender # F008554 is a good option. Just be sure to mount the fenders high enough because the upper part of the fender is only 8 inches wide and the suspension travel will cause the tire to be closer to the fender when under load.
