Hey guys! I am new to this forum. Good info on here.

We just purchased a 2022 GD Reflection 315 RLTS. We are using the trailer on our ranch in West Texas. Right now the trailer is just parked on bare ground. To help level the trailer I need to cut several 2 x8’s or 2 x10 boards to put under the tires. This is to help level the trailer side to side. I am unsure how long to cut the boards. Does anyone happen to know the total width of the two tires? Six feet? 8 feet?

This is a temporary solution until I can get a concrete pad poured and metal cover built over the trailer. The heat in West Texas can be brutal so we will need the shade of the cover too.

Thank for any responses.

6 foot would easily cover the spread

First off Bill, welcome to the forum. I don't have your trailer, but I'm guessing you'd be fine with 6-foot lengths. If you have smaller pieces you could get by separately supporting each wheel.
 
I think you’re right. It’s a six hour drive to the ranch so I wanted someone else’s input.

Thanks…Bill
 
Thanks for reading my mind! Not knowing what we will need, I kept a dozen of the 2' 2x8's that I had for the Foretravel when we were at certain parks that had excessive slope. (Foretravels use the air bags for leveling, so there is a limit to how much slope they can handle without wood under the tires.)
