you could cure that problem with a nice set of 215's. Something with an aggressive tread so it doesn't slide around your living room floor. It'll protect the linoleum floors in your trailer too.

well the stockers are so narrow even 185's will fix that problem. but the above poster mentioned to do it without tires for a cleaner look.

no idea wat it looks like inside a trailer home.

ah, i forgot about the ge8's protruding spokes.

lowes sells polyurethane sticker-bumpers that might help keep the glass from sliding around but i'm not sure how well bare ge8 alloys stack compared to the gd3 alloys... another option is to stand all four rims vertically and chok them so they don't move or roll away
