Crazy as it way seem.

My one caravan had a blowout on the driveway.

Was looking for a 4 stud, 13”’ caravan wheel and tyre. Or just a used tyre to fit on my wheel as tyre shops had no part worn 13” tyres.

So plan B

Fixed this tonight after work using a space saver Mickey tossed a year or two ago. Same stud pattern, but centre bore was too tight.

Thanks to Andy my old lodger, I used a tungsten carbide burr to trim it away to fit.

Job done.

Yes, different caravan, swapped out wheels, keeping the welding caravan once carport is up.

The storage one will be headed to a new home.
