X-chocks for the vibe24

wanting to buy a set of x-chocks for the vibe24 I have ordered, need to know the wheel spacing between tires to buy correct set. what I remember is that there is a lot of space between tires. what is the distance and do I need one or two chocks.

You get either the standard or extended version of the chocks. You need two of either, one for each side.
With that said. I have used them and found them to be more of a pain than benefit. Putting them on and off wasn't worth it for me. I ended up with a set of Fastway One-Step chocks. To me, they provide the same stability as the X-chocks and they are a LOT easier to use. And are the only chocks I need - recognize that with X-chocks, you still need a set of standard wedge chocks. I've now been using One-steps for 3 years and they still look brand new, very durable (all metal).

The only time I wouldn't recommended the One-steps is if you use those drive on Anderson Levelers.

In July of 2017, tiger1 posted using regular xchocks for a vibe with 9.5 inches between tires- no problem.
They need to be used in pairs to avoid the trailer twisting left or right when gravity or strong winds try to move the unit.
I like the added stability they give me at a camp site and lock them on when in storage.
Paired padlocks are a separate purchase.
