Helpful Expert Reply:
A example of a conventional steel trailer wheel is Dexstar # AM20766. Modular wheels are simply trailer wheels that feature cosmetically-appealing holes rather than spokes or a solid inner surface. A good example of a modular trailer wheel would be the Taskmaster Steel # TA73VR.
