cool. The tread pattern looks like a BF Goodrich G-Force Sport.

A wheel and tire like that will float on water!

This wheel and tire floats on water, even supporting the weight of the trailer. IIRC, if the boat is on it then it will sink until the boat begins to enter the water. It's something like 235/75-15.

That is some very impressive craftsmanship.

I would think it would be a lot easier & cheaper to just buy a wheel & tire, or even to borrow one. Or maybe just have one made from plastic with stereolithography.
