    Trailer Queen

    After installing a roll bar, I was pretty disappointed to find that I could no longer fit my R-compounds in the back seat. I did 3 in the trunk and one in the passenger seat for a few events, but wasn't happy with that setup. This used Harbor Freight autocross trailer showed up on the local forum for $100 and I knew it was my answer. I made a trip to Lowe's for materials to modify the trailer as it had been used for significantly narrower tires before. Here is the finished product. It was a fun little project and I'm looking forward to having a passenger seat again.

    i really like this, my buddy got the same trailer for his car to, and you can lower these by the way...

    When people ask you what car you drive and you say a BMW and they get all excited until they see it...

          There are 2 bolts in the bumper and 4 in the bottom of the spare tire well. It's damn solid.

            Nice, I think this is a better alternative that your previous set up. Good job!

                    Make sure you grease up the bearings on it so they don't freeze up. At 100 bucks you could tow it behind your lawn tractor and not loose any money on it.

                              This one: decent price and no complaints with the install.
