Thank you for your purchase of the Malone MicroSportXT Trailer # MPG460XT!

The V-Shaped carriers that came on the Malone XtraLight Trailer MPG526G-V aren't available anymore but the Malone MegaWing Fishing Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # MPG207 will mount directly to the crossbars on your trailer and work great for your wooden kayaks!

I've attached some review videos for you to check out as well.

Hey Medic, so the Kenda ST235/75R15 Radial Off-Road Trailer Tire #KE68JR was designed for off-road traction but it is going to do really well in the wet and snowy conditions. Based on what you are looking for these are going to work well.
