Hub-Piloted Wheel
This wheel is hub piloted, which means that it centers on the hub, not the lugs. The wheel requires the use of flange nuts (sold separately) for installation.
Corrosion-Resistant Finish
This steel wheel goes through a 3-step finishing process that makes it both attractive and corrosion resistant. The wheel is first submerged in a zinc phosphate bath to ensure good paint adhesion. It is then e-coated with an acrylic primer base and finished on both sides with baked-on DuPont powder paint.
Determining the Bolt Pattern
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: "5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: "8 on 6-1/2" means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
Measuring the distance from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at this Taskmaster 17 and a half inch by six and three quarter inch white modular wheel with a positive offset and has an eight on six and a half inch bolt pattern. Now this is a heavy duty steel wheel, it has the eight hole modular design which is sturdy and corrosion. This is a design, you can see it has the eight round holes that go around the wheel. These are designed for use on trucks, buses, and trailers. Now on this wheel, they do use a three step finishing process, which will first include a zinc phosphate bath, then an eco-primer, and then a white powder coat on both sides of the wheel.
This wheel is a hub piloted wheel, which means it'll require an exact fit of the center hole right here, this pilot hole to the hub on your vehicle. The pilot hole diameter on this is 4.76 inches. Now, hub piloted wheels do require the use of flange nuts for installation. Those we do sell separately on our website. They're usually listed on this product page as a related product.
And the size of the flange nut that's used is five eights of an inch by 18. Now this wheel does have a slight positive offset of 0.08 inches, and a positive offset means that it'll move this wheel and tire closer to the center line of the trailer. If you notice, they do include a high pressure metal valve stem already installed in there. Now this wheel does meet the SAE J1204 Standards. A few measurements on this.
We talked about the diameter on it being 17 and a half inches, and when you measure it, it's the inside measurement. So if we take our tape measure and if we go all the way across, you'll be able to see it's measuring 17 and a half inches for the diameter. The width will be the same way. You're measuring bead seat to bead seat, so inside the inside. So if we go right across, six and three quarter inches for the width, the bolt pattern on this wheel is a eight on six and a half inch bolt pattern.
You can see the holes right here. If you wanna measure the bolt pattern on the wheel, that's an even number of lugs. In this case, eight. It's pretty easy because the lug holes are right across from each other. So when you go to measure it, all you have to do is pick one of the holes like this one, measure from the center of this hole, directly across to the center of the hole right across from it. On this one, it'll measure six and a half inches, so that means it's an eight on six and a half inch bolt pattern. And the weight capacity on this wheel, which will be stamped in the back here, is 6,005 pounds. But that should do it for the review on this Taskmaster 17 point a half inch by six and three quarter inch white modular wheel with a positive offset, and the eight on six and a half inch bolt pattern..

Fast order process. Fast shipping. Excellent quality product. Keep up the good work.
Overall good looking wheel. Price was good for what I was looking for. Box was dinged up a bit although I expected that to happen, something that heavy is bound to beat up the box. Paint was very nice. Having the tire installed today and we will see how nice it looks when I pick it up.
Just got the new tire mounted on the rim! Now I'm looking for lug nuts and bolts for a heavy duty tilt trailer 8 hole lug. I'm also looking for a brushed aluminum 16" rim with the identical pattern as the one I just purchased. The steel rim will then become my spare.
Thank you
I wanted black wheels instead of the white ones that came on the trailer. I liked the extra rust prevention provided in the description. I have just received them so they are not installed yet but the finish and style look amazing, the online pictures don't do them justice.
They've worked great fit perfectly put them on a stock trailer
Love the rims and tire. I have 4 more that I use on my food truck and they are great.
I'm rating this trailer wheel as Excellent for a few reasons. First, the cost of the wheel is low for the quality of the product. Second, the wheel has kept its color and shine for over a year of substantial use. Third, the durability is awesome! We travel too many areas with tough terrain and the wheels need to be strong enough to handle the hits that come with the areas we access. These wheels do just that and do it well.
Wheel size was right and shipping was great. I put a spare on it for my RV.
The only lights that will fit on our trailer. Glad you have them in stock!
This has been an unfortunate on-line learning experience for me. I thought I had finally found a set of rims that fit my 1972 Ford F250. I entered my vehicle and read the line that stated...
Heavy-duty steel wheel with modular design is sturdy and corrosion resistant
Designed for use on trucks, buses, and trailers
Even though "use on trucks" is stated, these wheels are only approved for trailers. When I sought to return the wheels, I was surprised to learn that I would be out $[XX] for shipping on a $[XX] purchase. So even though etrailer is willing to refund the cost of the wheels, I will be out a couple of hundred dollars, with nothing to show.
Buyer beware! No more on-line orders for me. The risk is the worth the cost. That is what I have learned from this transaction.
Great quality wheel. Also the taskmaster inner packaging and the ETrailer outer packaging was superb. Thank you for packaging it so well for transit.
very disappointed to find the inside 4.25 center hole was misshapen when the stud holes were punched .it scratched my brand new flat black caps .will have to grind at each hole to round them and repaint everything. not very good for premium steel wheels. this is the second set of 5 I have bought . the first set was fine because the caps were loose.
The wheel in itself is a great wheel for the price. however unbeknownst to me once these arrived i took them straight to the tire shop (in the box) with the new G rated 14ply trailer tires to have them mounted. tire shop advised that once they opened the boxes, several wheels were bent around the rim. although it looked ugly luckily, the tires mounted okay. i had to buy some chrome rings to cover the ugly bends and dents (so more money) and contacted etrailer only to be told "oh sorry to hear about that. what i should have done was sent them back but they were already mounted and i would be charged again for that. didnt get any credit or discount offer from etrailer, they just seemed to not care. i've always purchased my trailer parts from etrailer because they've always been good to me, but i guess good thing must come to an end.
Looks like great quality, and arrived very well packaged and just what I was needing.
All 4 wheels arrived on time and undamaged. I just had the new tires mounted and the combo looks great. I'm excited to get them on our camper to see how the whole package looks. When the mechanic mounted the tires he balanced everything right away and said that one wheel was off by quite a bit. So, depending on what you are putting these on, consider getting them balanced right away.
Matches my other rims, looks great!
The Vesper wheel rims are very good rims. The paint is good as well
Exactly what I needed for a spare wheel. Etrailier was helpful in making sure I ordered the correct produce. I’m having tire installed today. SHIPPING WAS FAST ordered on Friday and received Tue. ( a day earlier than original date - thanks UPS.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND USING ETRAILIER
Wheels are fine but ups wasn’t gentle with the boxes.
No issues at all. I use my trailer at least 2x monthly for hauling Off-road jeeps to and from the trails 20K+ lbs.
Great deal for a 6 on 5.5 rim.
Perfect color match to original rims
Delivered two days early thanks to George J for upgrading my shipping free of charge
Thank you etrailer
