well I used them once and moved the van around. Seems to be doing ok although I should have measured the size of the garage rather than eyeballing. It's smaller than I thought. I thought I could rotate 360 but that won't happen. After moving I took the van off the dollies again as I don't want to hurt the tires. So not quite as I had imagined. Once I start the project for real (LOL) I might change over to some old wheels. As I have now 14 alu wheels on ( with 195/14 Hankook) I have to find the studs for the steelies again. Are the dollies worth it? Maybe. Stuart's suggestion is certainly less expensive. https://www.harborfreight.com/1500-lbs-capacity-vehicle-dollies-2-pc-60343.html Karl.
