Video Transcript for Americana Tires and Wheels AM90049 Review
Today we're going to review part number AM90049. This is the Americana 1/2 inch by 20 trailer wheel lug nut with the chrome-plated finish. The 1/2 inch by 20 designates the size of bolt that this will fit on; 1/2 inch is the diameter and the thread 20 means 20 threads per inch. Usually on most lug nuts they will be stamped. If you see on this one, it'll say 1/2 inch by 20 to let you know what size this is. This also has the standard 60-degree cone you can see here that will fit the 60-degree taper of the wheel you put it on.
It is a chrome-plated finish for durability and corrosion resistance. To give you a measurement on this; overall length of this lug nut is 1-3/4 inches and the hex head size or socket size you would need to use on this is 3/4 of an inch. I happen to have a deep-well 3/4 inch socket here, you can see it fits perfectly right on there. Just wanted to show you on your trailer wheel, most trailer wheels will just have a standard open-end small lug nut. This longer lug nut with the closed end you could put on there. It gives you a little bit longer reach, also a nicer finish, but the main advantage of using the longer lug nut is lots of times people will change from a steel wheel to an aluminum nice wheel and the aluminum wheels usually will have a deeper middle to where your lug nuts are so instead of having a shorter lug nut like this on it you need a longer lug nut so you can access it with your socket.
These longer lug nuts like this will work a lot better in the aluminum designed wheels. That should do it for the review on part number AM90049. This is the Americana 1/2 inch by 20 trailer wheel lug nut with the chrome-plated finish. .

Trailer wheel lug nut fits 1/2" diameter wheel bolts and is chrome plated for durability and corrosion resistance.by: Philip 05/10/2023
Well built seems one piece rather than justva cap over a lug nut. Perfect thickness for the rims i got from here

I built my" tool shed" on a Triton aluminum trailer. I wanted doors on three sides. I do a lot of volunteer work at a Bible camp and it involves hauling my tools to the job. The trailer had 12x 4 inch wheels and I wanted something I more substantial to carry the load. I ordered the wheels and tires from etrailer. They came on time and we're exactly what I wanted. I have purchased other items from etrailer, and highly recommend this company

Adds a bit of class to my utility trailer. They look good, in fact, they look really good on my new galvanized wheels. I used my extra long breaker bar to snug them into place. I'm ready to roll. My trailer thanks you.

Replacing 2-piece wheel nuts on my 2019 Grand Design Solitude 5th wheel trailer. Bought one lug nut to confirm fitment before buying a full set of 32 to complete the change over. The fit and finish was as advertised, so I purchased a full set for my trailer's tandem wheels.

I recently purchased four wheels to upgrade my camper. Arthur, my etrailer tech support rep assisted with my questions and transaction. Arthur was very helpful, pleasant, knowledgeable and had the tech data available to help make the purchase easier. Sometimes buying over the phone assisted by a web site still leaves us wondering if we'll be getting what we expected. After receiving the wheels, caps and lug nuts I was very satisfied with the products. The wheels and style look great. I had new tires mounted on the wheels and the combo will definitely add to the appearance of my camper. From the time you order, delivery is very quick and the product is packed to prevent damage. I highly recommend etrailer.
by: John 04/13/2024
This is a project in the making. I noticed one of my OEM 2-piece wheel nuts had a split casing. I need to replace all 32 OEM nuts to avoid future problems. This order for 1 wheel nut was a test for my Dexter axle threaded studs. The fit and finish was perfect so I ordered 32 wheel nuts to complete my transition from 2-pc wheel nuts to solid ones. I’ll send photos when the change-over is complete. I’m thinking many other Grand Design RV owners may be facing a similar problem.
by: David08/02/2023
Good looking quality lug nuts and fast shipping, what else can I say.
by: Chris05/01/2023
I bought these lug nuts to compliment my new wheel/tire combo on my double jet ski trailer. The nuts have a nice chrome finish and appear to be high quality. 5 stars!
by: 7 Slot Collectibles05/10/2024
Perfect match for the aluminum wheels we also purchased from them.
by: Elliot08/05/2021
I bought these closed end lug nuts to replace the old worn out open end ones on my EZ Loader Boat Trailer. These should protect the studs better and look a lot nicer. The fit was perfect 1/2-20 for my axle. These axle hubs were rebuilt by me and changed from oil hubs to grease hubs with new bearings, seals and Brake Buddies obtained from etrailer.com. I also purchased the nice aluminum wheels and upgraded Load Range D Kenda Karrier tires, 175/80R-13 already mounted from etrailer. I thought the price was very fair and I didn't have to mount the new tires on the ugly original galvanized wheels. Great customer service as always and the parts are good quality. Ignore the brown haze on the wheels, it is just a reflection. The wheels are spotless and shiny!

Perfect, no issues at all and they look nice and have protected the studs better than the small open ended lug nuts.
by: jth301/01/2024
EXACTLY what I ordered & received: Ten chrome plated 1/2"-20 American Trailer Wheel Lug Nuts. Promptly shipped. A perfect transaction.
by: Marlon04/24/2023
Great price. Only reason it’s not 5 stars is because I ordered 20 lug nuts and only received 5. The error was fixed quickly and the remainder of the lug nuts have arrived. Very fast response from them to my emails. I would definitely recommend this company
by: Richard 02/05/2024
Easy ordering, Quick shipping. the lug nuts appear to be well made and were reasonably priced
by: Ron 02/13/2024
Bought new rims for my trailer, They are high quality and look great.
by: George05/26/2021
These wheels(rims) were exactly what we we were looking for and we think this is a significant upgrade to our 2008 Jayco JayFlight G2 travel trailer over the original, somewhat worn old wagon wheel style rims that came with the trailer. The service from etrailer is just as important to this review as the wheels however.
We had a problem with one of the HiRun tires installed 5 yrs ago while we were on the road from North Carolina to Delaware. Upon closer inspection, and not being able to find DOT Codes, we decided to purchase new american made tires while on the road.
After sourcing the tires here near the beach in Delaware, I called etrailer and wound Talking to Tommy C. On Monday morning I ordered the four rims 4 center caps and 24 Lug nuts, and on WED.(!!!Missouri to Delaware in less than 48hours) they were at the tire dealers and ready to have the tires mounted on them. Friday on our way to the next stop we stop by the tire dealer, get the closest thing to a Pit-stop off with the old - on with the new, and up the road. Excellent Products with Outstanding Service!!!!
by: Allen 09/08/2023
Expensive, but cover all the threads.
Perfect for aluminum rims where the lugs are recessed into a machined area.
Have a 3/4" thin wall 6 point deep socket handy.
All 20 fit like a glove, no imperfections, and look like they'll last.
5 star except at $4 a pop I have $80 in lug nuts!!!
by: Dana M.02/23/2018
These lug nuts really improved the looks over the smaller acorn type that my trailer came with. I like how the threads are not exposed anymore. I also found that it is very easy to scratch up your rims around the lug nuts with the lug wrench when you have the acorn nuts. These are much longer and the lug wrench does not even come close to rims anymore. They shine up nicely too. Nice way to upgrade the wheel area of your trailer.
by: Dennis 08/26/2023
Ordered the Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nuts on a Wednesday and received on Saturday, that was great. Used this chrome plated item instead of the capped lug nut I was replacing because of separation . This item is 1/4 inch longer but not a problem for me. Everything else was perfect.
by: Bruce 05/16/2024
Your website videos make it easy to ensure that you are buying the correct item.

Still very happy no issues with 4000 miles on them.

Did the job needed replacing the stainless capped factory lug nuts getting jammed up in socket upon installing or removing.
by: Greg10/09/2019
EZ to order, lightning fast shipping, the chrome center caps and lug nuts look great on my trailer! This trailer is about 25 years old and was just repainted and had all of the wood deck and sides replaced. Of course I had to make the wheels look good too!!
by: Paula06/05/2023
We have a Forest River Heritage Glann 5th wheel and a couple of the lug nuts were damaged over time with tire changing. My husband has been looking everywhere for replacement chrome lug nuts and nothing was the right size or the right thread count so we searched online with our specifications and etrailer popped up and since we have used this company before we trusted what we found would fix our problem. The Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut was near perfect. It is only slightly longer than the ones that are on there now and it blended right in, there is no way to tell it is different unless you get down and really look at it. We know that a lot of the items used to build our 5th wheel were cheap and probably not made in the USA and as we replace pieces, we feel that the quality is much better than what we have. We enjoy working with etrailer we usually find what we need and we do not have to deal with returns and we are up and running better than new.

- Recommended Lug Nuts for Westlake ST205/75R14 Radial Tire w 14 Condor Aluminum WheelFor lug nuts to go with your # LH37VR you want them to have the standard 60 degree cone and fit 1/2"-20 wheel studs. If you want a chrome-plated steel I recommend the # AM90049. For a stainless steel option you can use the # KALN1375S.

The entire wheel/tire assembly offers a 675-lb weight rating at its specified pressure of 30-psi and it carries an F speed rating, meaning it is good for speeds up to 50-mph.

The lug nuts that we carry fit 1/2 inch. 5/8 inch, and 9/16 inch wheel studs. The item that you referenced, Chrome Trailer Wheel Lug Nut, part # 12CLN, fits 1/2 inch wheel bolts and has an overall length of 1-1/2 inches. The longest lug nut that we have available to fit 1/2 inch wheel bolts is the Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut, part # AM90049, which is 1-7/8 inches long and has a dome...
view full answer... - Switching From 4.80-8 to 4.80-12 Trailer Wheels and Tires With a 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt PatternFirst, I do recommend verifying exactly how much clearance you have. The Kenda 4.80-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" Galvanized Wheel # AM30670 you are looking at is 20.7" tall while your Kenda 4.80/4.00-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8" White Wheel # AM30020 is 16.1" tall. The 4.6" difference will be 2.3" loss of fender clearance. It is recommended to have 3" of vertical clearance for suspension travel with the taller tires. The wheel that comes on the set above is lug piloted and will center...
view full answer... - Lugnuts and Center Cap Hub Covers Needed for Use with Aluminum WheelsYes, you will need either the # 319EZ-SS Stainless Steel Center Cap or the # 319EZ Chrome Stainless Steel Center Cap for the Aluminum Hi-Spec Series S5 Trailer Wheel, item # AM22323HWT. The lug nuts you will need are the Chrome Plated Wheel Lug Nuts, item # AM90049. You would need 5 of these for each wheel.LHCS102-SI60C

Going up one load range, to D from C, is not a problem and will not cause the tire to wear differently. Tires that wear in the center are normally over inflated. For Lug Nuts you would use 10 of the Trailer Wheel Lug Nut, item # AM90049, to replace two wheels. This wheel has a 3.19 inch pilot diameter so the Stainless Steel Trailer...

Starting with the Timbren Axle-Less Suspension I would go ahead and use the # A35RD545 as it has the 3500lb rating which will be perfect for your intended trailer weight, and already includes the 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern hubs that you were wanting. The # ASR3500S04 is the exact same spindle just without hubs, and would work perfectly with the # CE13515 you mentioned, but there is not really much of...
view full answer... - Replacement Steel Wheels For A 1976 Airstream Tradewind There isn't a guide to tell us exactly what was on your 1976 Airstream Tradewind so you'll want to doublecheck the measurements just to be sure. For a 15" x 6" steel wheel with a 6 lug pattern and 1/2" wheel studs you could use the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20539. This wheel has a 6 on 5-1/2 wheel bolt pattern, which is pretty standard, but you'll want to verify the bolt pattern you have just incase the hubs have something unusual. You can measure from the center of one of...
view full answer... - Are There ST145R12 Trailer Tires & Wheels With 5 Lugs For Pop-Up CamperWe do have ST145R12 trailer tires and wheels with 5 lugs for a pop-up camper. It has a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern, and I'll list the option below; just keep in mind the load range is per tire, so double it for the per-axle capacity. - Load Range D (1,220 lbs): Kenda Karrier S-Trail ST145/R12 Radial Tire w/ 12" Galvanized Spoke Wheel # AM31202 Also, if you need lug nuts, the correct part is the Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut # AM90049.
view full answer... - Looking Fore One-Piece Acorn-Type Wheel Lug NutWe do offer a one-piece lug nut, assuming your wheel studs are a 1/2 inch with a 20 thread per inch thread could. If that's the case, you'd need part # AM90049. If you have 9/16-18 studs, we don't offer a one-piece lug nut, you'd need to go with part # LHLR110 which is a steel lug nut with a stainless jacket. I've linked you to product description videos for the lug nuts mentioned above.
view full answer... - Are Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheels Lug Centric or Hub Centric? The Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheel # AM20514 is a lug centric wheel. All of their conventional style wheels are lug centric. They require the use of a 60-degree cone lug such as the Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut # AM90049
view full answer... - Recommended Wheel Caps for 15 Inch Wheels with 5 on 5 Inch Bolt Pattern The Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel - 15" x 5" Rim - 5 on 5 - White Powder Coat # AM20428 will allow you to use the Trailer Wheel Center Cap, Chrome, 3.19" Pilot Size # 319EZ. This style cover is currently the only fit to give you a nice finished look. You can then use Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut - Chrome Plated - 1/2"-20 # AM90049 to complete the overall appearance.
view full answer... - What Is The Correct Lug Nut For A PJ Trailer With ST205/75-15 Tires?The 15" wheels will use a 1/2" 20 lug nut. This is standard for virtually any 15" 5 lug or 6 lug wheel/ hub combination. Now I am not sure exactly when your trailer was made, but anything made within the last few decades should stick to this standard. I recommend using a one-piece chrome lug nut like part # AM90049 or # 12CLN.
view full answer... - Chrome Plated Lug Nut Recommendation for Kenda Karrier Tire with 13" Black Mod WheelThe Kenda Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire with 13" Black Mod Wheel # AM31990 installs on 1/2"-20 studs so for a chrome plated lug nut I recommend going with the Americana part # AM90049. This uses the 60-degree cone shape so it matches perfectly up with the trailer wheel. Attached are some review videos for you to check out!
view full answer... - Torque for Loadstar Tire With Aluminum WheelI have attached a sheet which shows the torque specs for wheels you can use when putting a tire and wheel. For 1/2" wheel bolts on a 13" aluminum wheel the torque is 75-85 ft.-lb. For lug nuts you can use the Lionshead Trailer Wheel Lug Nut # LHLR103 or Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut # AM90049.

- Best Lug Nuts to Use with Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire with 16" Aluminum WheelKarrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire and aluminum wheel # AM32734 does not come with lug nuts. These wheel has bolt holes that will accept 1/2 inch or 9/16 inch studs. For 1/2 inch -20 lug nuts you can use # AM90049 for a single lug nut. For 9/16 inch -18 lug nuts you can use # 6-53 for a single lug nut. I have included some links to the right on trailer tires, sizes, and determining bolt pattern for you.
view full answer... - Difference Between the Higher and Lower Priced Trailer Lug NutsThe more expensive lug nuts like the part # KALN1375S and # LHLR103 are made of stainless steel and the lower priced ones like # AM90049 are chrome plated. Stainless steel does not rust or corrode so it's the best choice. Chrome plated lugs will eventually rust which normally manifests as the sockets stop fitting the lugs properly as the corrosion causes the lugs to "swell" and make them hard to deal with and eventually cause failure. If at all possible the stainless options are the way to go.
view full answer... - What Lug Nuts Would Allow You To Install Toyota Wheels On Trailer Hub w/ 1/2" StudsBased on what I can find, Toyota uses standard 60 degree cones in the wheels, so all you'd need is the # AM90049 which have the 1/2" x 20 thread pitch you need, and the 60 degree cone to match your wheels. You will want to confirm that the cone pitch of the lug nuts perfectly matches your wheels though.
view full answer... - Are Longer Wheel Studs Needed for Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire with 13" Aluminum WheelThe Karrier ST175/80R13 Radial Trailer Tire with 13" Aluminum Wheel part # AM32001HWTB won't require longer wheel studs. They will however require new wheel lug nuts, the Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut part # AM90049. The wheel stud length will be the same for steel or aluminum wheels but you'll need longer lug nuts since aluminum wheels have a deeper recess for the lug nut holes.
view full answer... - Recommended Lug Nuts for Westlake ST205/75R14 Radial Tire with 14" Jaguar Aluminum WheelThe Westlake ST205/75R14 Radial Tire w 14" Jaguar Aluminum Wheel part # 274-000014 is designed to be used with long style acorn lug nuts like the Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut part # AM90049. The recesses on aluminum wheels is much deeper than steel wheels which is why you need the long style lug nuts which all have the acorn shape.
view full answer... - Backspacing of Loadstar ST175/80D13 AM3S101The backspacing of S3101 tire and wheel part # AM3S101 is 3 inches which is the distance from the wheel mounting flange of the hub to outside edge. This can be used with standard lug nuts and wheel bolts for trailers like the part # AM90049.

Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut - 7/8" Diameter - Stainless Steel - 1/2" - 20 # AM90070. Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut - 3/4" Diameter - Stainless Steel - 1/2" - 20 # AM26NR Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut - 3/4" Diameter - Chrome Plated - 1/2"-20 # AM90049

In order to install this wheel on your trailer you will need a high pressure valve stem like the Americana High Pressure Rubber Snap-In Valve Stem part # AM20907 and lug nuts like the Americana Trailer Wheel Lug Nut...
view full answer... - 1/2"-20 Acorn Lug Nut That Uses 13/16" Socket and 1-1/2" LongIt sounds like the Kodiak Trailer Wheel Lug Nut # KALN1375S is the size that you are looking for. This lug nut uses a 13/16" socket and the overall length is 1-9/16" long. It fits the same 1/2"-20 wheel stud as the Americana # AM90049 but is stainless steel rather than chrome plated. These fasteners can be torqued up to 120ft-lbs as long as you have steel wheels. Please see the lug nut torque sheet below.
