I'm thinking about putting slightly larger tires on my Jon boat trailer. The ones that I have on now are getting worn and think that replacing them with larger ones would only be better for road trips and rough roads. However as it sits now there is only so much clearance with the fender well. The two options I see are 1: replace the fender wells and raise the bunks to give it plenty of clearance. Or the second option would be to take the axle which is bolted on top of the leaf springs and bolt it to the bottom of the leaf springs. Obviously option two would be easier and it is just a 16' aluminum boat. My question is whether or not option 2 is safe and a some what standard thing to do?
