Trailer stowaway wheels?

 Looking at getting my boat into my shed whil;e Im away at work, has anyone got or know where to get "stowaway wheels" to lower the height?

Im about 50mm too high even with tyres down bimini dropped etc

Ive tried Martins but they dont have them in stock and are getting back to me tomorrow about them.

Try caravan shops eg Jayco. I have seen solid wheels used to lower caravans that might fit the bill. Will depend on the stud pattern you have.

Thats what i thought of yesterday using conveyor rubber! Got a couple of 13" holden rims, only to discover they are Ford stud pattern, near impossible to get 13" used ford as they havent been made since mid 60's except as trailer rims ( new).
But all i need to instead is put a timber rails on floor at door, drop boat wheels off so hubs roll on timber. I only want to put it in while at work 4 weeks. Didnt get time to sort it yesterday and off to Darwin now so i'll have to sort it when i get back.

Cheers rob
