Are There Any 6-Lug 16 x 6 Wheels Compatible With A 14-Ply Tire
Question:
we have a 2021 grand design reflection 5th wheel and want to upgrade our tires from 10 ply ST235/80R 16 with a rim of 16 X 6 J 6 lugs to a 14 ply 6 lugs tire and want to know if you have a rim for that upgrade?

Expert Reply:
With a 14-ply tire you'd need a wheel with at least a 4,080lb capacity, which we we only carry in an 8-lug configuration, like part # A16RG8BML80. If you can't find a 6-lug wheel with this capacity then your next option would be to replace the hubs in order to switch over to an 8-lug setup.
If you have to go this route then I'll need you to measure points B,C, and D (pictured below) in order to find compatible 8-lug hubs for your 5th wheel's spindles.
