Brad: As others have said cool it if those tires have liquid in them, it can go right around the wheel circle and man you will be in space if much speed. I would have to agree with 20 to 30 mph as a limit anyhow. Having said this, I was coming out a side road one day, saw a Crysler mini van coming with a car dolly and front wheels of a MH 33 straped down in the cradles. This guy was moving so decided it was safer to be behind him than out front. I followed him for about 20 miles on county roads at speeds up to 50 mph. He turned unto 4 lane and yes you guessed it 65 mph. I learnrd later he was a clergyman who lived some 30 miles beyond where I went on 4 lane. Never heard tell of any crashes. Guys tell me he pulled the 33 quite regularly this way. I stayed well back as I was expecting transmission and bull gears to be launched somewhere in space. I guess the lord was travelling with him. By all means don't take this as being safe. The guy should have been trucked off to the funny farm.
