Im not sure why youd go with the 27 watt when the 55 watt is so much better Ive seen the 27 watt and not very impressed The 55 watt gives you great light, nothing like going to all the work of installing lights and not being satisfied. just something to think about

I may be wrong but those tires look like passenger car tires, you need to go to your local tire dealer and check on a set of 10 ply trailer tires.
