I am not really sure what your exact question is but we recommend that you have around 4" of space between your trailer tires on a tandem or triple axle trailer. That said, I would say the 3.2" that you have now is also acceptable. There is not an industry standard for the space needed between the tires on a tandem or triple axle trailer but as said, 4" is a good rule of thumb.
