Wheel Spacers (like for golf cart wheels)

[famvburg]

I recently bought a used 4' x 8' light duty utilty trailer, like from Harbor Freight. It was a fixer upper and one thing I wanted to do was but wide tires on it so if I towed it behind my Max II it would handle soft terrain better. It came with well-worn 8" boat trailer wheels and tires. In order to put wider 8" golf cart wheels and tires I ended up finding golf cart wheel spacers on eBay. 5" EZ-GO EZGO CLUB CAR GOLF CART WHEEL SPACERS SPACER | eBay They worked great and were so simple to use. This got me thinking about folks who want to put bigger tires and/or wheels on their AATVs and having to modify their tubs for clearance. If these spacers are stout enough for a golf cart, how would they fare for an AATV? I would think they'd make adding wider tires a breeze and as the auction says, a little wider for stability. If I were to want wider tires on my Max, I think I'd be tempted to use them rather than distort the tub. Any thoughts?

Other members have used spaces before, but the width of the tire is not usually the limiting factor. The height is where the tub mods come into place. They would help for stability while floating though.
