We are the ORIGINAL and proven EZY Wheels adapters with engineering certification. For use in industrial and safety compliant applications. This listing is for a pair (2) EZY Wheel adapter and 8-lug hub assemblies pre-assembled ready for fitting wheels. These are designed only for off-road use. Our EZY Wheels are machined to fit into your container.
They are made out of Grade 1045 Cold Rolled American Steel. EZY Wheels are laser cut and robotic welded allowing for uniform and superior strength welds throughout the build. They are also made from 1045 Cold Rolled American Steel. They are coated in heavy duty nickel chrome finish for a long life of use. What are the load ratings of the EZY Wheels.
How do the EZY Wheels work? Why do I need straps? There is very little tension on the straps, it just keeps them from turning and unlocking off the container.Can the EZY Wheels be used on the Highway? They are not made for highway use. They are made for off road only and slow speeds. What is the difference between the 6 Lug and 8 Lug EZY Wheels? They are rated the same!
The reason for the two difference sizes are for wheel and tire availability. Size for 8 Lug are 8x6.5 (many old truck wheels and tires work, check before purchasing). Size for 6 Lug are 6x5.5 this is a standard chevy half ton truck size, in some cases the center hole may be too small.
How high does the container sit when EZY Wheels are put on? On average ground clearance is 12. You can adjust this by your tire size.If you need maximum ground clearance, old tall mud truck tires work great. How far do the EZY Wheels stick out from the container? Approximately 12 past the container depending on your tire. Why do I need ratchet straps?
Ratchet straps are to insure that the EZY Wheels do not come off your container if your container would go high centered while moving. Do you sell ready to go kits? Yes we do, we sell bundles with EZY Wheels and wheels and tires. The wheel come with a heavy rated 10ply E rated tire.We sell E rated tires, in most cases any tire will work. Since these are for off road use, they just need to not be dry rotted and hold air.
What materials are EZY Wheels made from? Our EZY Wheels are constructed of 1045 cold rolled steel. All of our parts are made right here in Missouri, USA.
We only use American Steel. We do source our hubs from overseas. Our EZY Wheels and most of our other items are Nickel Chrome Plated. The reason for this is durability. What finish are the EZY Wheels? Are EZY Wheels made in the USA? We do not outsource the builds of our EZY Wheels. They are made in Wonderful Washington, Missouri. We use only USA Steel. Many of the machines that we use to build our products come from Washington, Missouri. Can EZY Wheels be put on the door end of the container and the opposite end of the container? This is a great way to move your container side to side or in its own tracks. On the non-door side of the container they install the exact way they do on the sides.On the door-end of the container, we suggest to put a 2x4 between the EZY Wheel and the container, this insures that the wheels stay vertical and protects your doors. EZY Wheels are designed to move 8800 pounds per end of container. So they would work on a container weighing less than 17,600 pounds total weight, if the weight is evenly distributed.
We do recommend leaving your container as empty as possible. A lot of equipment will not lift the other end of the container with that weight added, which would make it hard to move the container.
Are your EZY Wheels painted or powder coated? No, from our experience paint and powder coat chip and do not withstand the tough conditions that they are designed to work in.
We stand behind everything we build. What is the wheel backspacing? Our EZY Wheels are designed to work with most standard trailer wheel backspacing. Most truck tire backspacing also work.
We highly suggest test fitting your wheels and tires to the EZY Wheels before purchasing from other places. Most of the time they will fit, but we cannot guarantee as there are so many different variants of tires.
