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.

Bolt Pattern - Odd

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.)

Bolt Pattern - Even

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.)

Bolt Pattern - 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.

  • If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
  • If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
  • If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
  • If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

I recently discovered etrailer while searching for a specific steel spoke trailer wheel. Not only did they have the item I was looking for, but their selection was vast, and the prices were competitive. The website was easy to navigate, and the product descriptions were informative and accurate. I was pleasantly surprised by the fast shipping and the care they took in packaging my order. I’m thrilled with my purchase and will continue to shop at etrailer for all my needs.



by:

I put these on an old 2 wheel trailer to hold my portable welder. They’re doing the job well. Make the whole thing look better too!



by:

Great quality wheels and great service, only I wish I had purchased the valves to go along with the wheels.

We offer a metal valve stem as part # AM20906, which Id recommend instead of the rubber valve stems.



by:

Bailey was very nice and helpful on the phone. Will definitely do business with her again



by:

etrailer went above and beyond to help me get a wheel i needed in a very short period of time. etrailer associates kept me in the loop the whole shipping process to ensure i received it when needed. highly recommend them for your wheel purchases. It’s hard to find companies going above and beyond to help customers and etrailer certainly went above and beyond to help me in a desperate time of need. Thank you guys very much!

Product works great. Etrailer is truly one of a kind!



by:

These rims are perfect for my project... not a trailer, but a 1978 Toyota LandCruiser FJ40. They have the perfect 70s spoke look that is period correct for the ride. I didn't have any trouble getting tires (E-Rated) mounted or balanced at the big tire chain. I've put nearly 3000 miles on them already with no issues. I chose these because they had the correct backspacing and bolt pattern for the application, no interference in the front on full wheel lock, left or right. The USA made quality is certainly there; the powder-coating was just as uniform through the center of the wheel (not seen when the tire is mounted)as it is on the outside surfaces, unlike some foreign made stuff I saw at local trailer stores. Highly recommend, even though most of you reading this need it for a trailer. I tried uploading a picture, but it just says "was unsucccessful to upload".



by:

Product was just what I needed. It was shipped very quickly esp during holiday season. I was informed all the way thru delivery. Very good service.

Working good



by:

After careful consideration I purchased 5 16x6 Dexstar wheels for my enclosed car trailer. While installing the tires you could clearly SEE on the spin balancer that 2 of the rims "not tires" were out of round and required additional weight 3.75/2.25 to bring them into balance which is more than normal. I am uncertain of the factory tolerance however I would not recommend these wheels to a friend. If I had more time I would return. This was the reason I wanted to by wheels made in the USA and not ones made across the pond.



by:

As advertised, great price, quick free delivery for the 4 wheels. Converted my Arctic Fox Silver Edition from 15 inch to 16 inch LT225/75R16 E rated tires. Note, ST tires are not rated for more then 65 MPH. Most of us tow at that speed all day long and occasionally faster, risky with ST rated tires.



by:

These wheels are an outstanding bargain and were shipped and received at my home in unbelievable time frame. This order is proof that this company is certainly # 1 in customer satisfaction! Great company with can do attitude employees!

Great, they still look new and have worked with my sons camper!



by:

These 16" wheels were as described. A good value that solved my problem.
I wish that I had purchased them earlier.



by:

Perfect upgrade to the 15" tires on my 5th wheel. Now I have a large selection for tires. I ordered valves stems too, but the wrong size (hole size). Probably my fault, but it would have been nice to be warned about the size difference. No big deal - valve stems are located all over, but the deal on these wheels are not. Thanks!



by:

A quality trailer rim. My trailer came with 15 inch wheels an so i was limited to a low rating for weight capacity. These rims were cheap yet true and a good weight rating.



by:

Exact match for the rim I was replacing



by:

both tire and wheel holding up well . good quality and good price. Thank you.



by:

Can't say enough good about this company. Their followup communication is tops. Shipping was extemely fast, even though I used the cheapest method (they upgraded me for free). I have, and will continue to buy from etrailer.com!



by:

Good quality rim. It was used (couldn’t wait for delayed delivery of a new one) and has a couple of nicks on the backside, but other than that its good.



by:

Exactly what I needed



by:

Don't have a picture but the product that I bought was just as expected and worked great. I would suggest shopping with Etrailer to everyone.



by:

Fair price, fast, safe shipping. Pam from sales was awesome!
Website is easy to use and place orders.



by:

Product is as advertised and a good value! Finish an appearance is great. Tire mounted with no problems.



by:

product came in a timely manner and the best value i could find from a reputable company. E-trailer has met my needs many times.



by:

Product received in good condition. Excellent service by etrailer. I received shipment within 5 days(would have been 3 days if UPS delivered on weekends); Thanks for good service.



by:

I received my wheel just as I ordered and ahead of schedule. Great company to do business with. Will certainly be doing more business with them.

  • Replacement Wheels With 6 on 5-1/2 Bolt Pattern For 1997 Aljo Fifth Wheel Trailer
    It sounds like you need 4 wheels with 6 on 5-1/2 bolt patterns. Since I am not sure which diameter wheel you need for the 1997 Aljo, and trailer manufacturers do not make that information readily available, I have attached my recommendations for each size wheel with the bolt pattern you need. 15" - Dexstar Steel Spoke White powder coat wheel part # AM20532 16"- Dexstar Steel Spoke white powder coat wheel part # AM20741 16-1/2"- Dexstar Steel Spoke White Powder coat wheel part # AM20720DX These...

  • Can Trailer Tires/Wheels be Upgraded from 15 to 16 for 2017 Forest River Toy Hauler
    You definitely can increase the size of the tires on your 2017 Forest River Toy Hauler provided you have enough clearance. We recommend having at least 4" of clearance between the tire and fender (to account for flex in suspension) and then at least 2" between the tire and the trailer frame. I really like the Provider ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire, Item # TTWTRTM2358016E because it has a load range of E (3,520 lbs at 80 psi) and a great max speed rating of 81 mph. All you need to do...

    The HWT # AM22657 16x7 aluminum trailer wheel is manufactured in China. We do offer some Dexstar US made 16 inch trailer wheels. If a zero offset wheel would work for you, we offer some steel wheels with a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern. • Black 16x6 conventional trailer wheel, part # AM20758 • Black 16x6 mini mod trailer wheel, part # AM20757 • White 16x6 spoked wheel, # AM20741 • White 16x6 mini mod trailer wheel, part # AM20742 • Silver 16x6 mini mod trailer wheel, part # AM20746

  • Highest Available Load Rating for 16-Inch Trailer Wheels with 6-on-5-1/2 Bolt Pattern
    All available 16-inch trailer wheels with the 6-on-5-1/2 bolt pattern, such as Dexstar # AM20741 that you referenced, can be seen on the link provided. Most of these wheels are rated for 3050-lbs at 90-psi pressure. Part # AM22657 from Americana is rated for 3200-lbs at 80-psi; parts # AM22658HWTB and # AM22658HWT are rated for 3580-lbs at 80-psi, which is the highest rating we offer. The valve stem used can also affect overall pressure. If your trailer itself is rated for 36000-lbs...

  • Changing to Higher Load Range G ST235/80R16 Tires on 5th Wheel Trailer
    A higher Load Range E tire is going to have a larger load capacity, which will technically allow the tire to run a bit cooler under load during travel. A radial tire will also do a better job of running cooler than a bias ply alternative. Since excessive heat is the primary cause of trailer tire failure going up a bit in capacity isn't a bad idea at all. Based on my research it looks like your 2014 Crossroads Cruiser uses ST235/80R16 size tires. If this is correct I recommend the Provider...

  • Valve Stem Recommendation for Use with the Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel # AM20741
    The valve stem I would recommend for the Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel # AM20741 that you referenced is the part # AM20906. This valve stem will fit the wheel and can handle 100 psi and greater. The rim hole diameter this valve stem is designed to fit is .625". I attached an FAQ on trailer tires for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended Lionshead 16" Wheel w/ a 6 on 5-1/2 Lug Pattern

  • At What Age Should Trailer Tires Get Replaced
    Trailer tires should be replaced about every 6 or 7 years, even if the tread is still in good shape. As tires age, they can crack and dry rot. Continuing to use the existing tires would be dangerous. If you'd care to reply with the current size of the tires you have, I'd be happy to make a recommendation.

  • Maximum Air Pressure of Dexstar 16 x 6 Trailer Wheel # AM20741
    According to Dexstar Wheel, the # AM20741 wheel has a maximum load rating of 3050 lbs at 90 psi. So, 90 psi would be the maximum air pressure. We recommend using # AM20906 for a valve stem. I'll link you to our trailer tire/wheel FAQ article, which I hope you'll find helpful.

  • Looking For a 225/75R15 E Load Range Tire for RV
    I have just the special trailer tire for you. Take a look at Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire, # AM10303. A higher rated tire like this load range E-rated radial will run cooler while its radial design will give you better handling. Part # AM10303 has a maximum load capacity of 2,830-lbs at 80-psi inflation. Always run a trailer tire at its maximum rated psi pressure as shown on the tire sidewall. You may care to check out the linked articles on trailer tires for more information. If...

  • Can ST225/75R15 Trailer Tires be Replaced with ST235/85R16 Trailer Tires
    The tires that you have now, ST225/75R15, are 28.4 inches tall and 8 inches wide. The larger ST235/85R16 are 31.6 inches tall and 9.25 inches wide. You would need enough space all around the existing tires to use the larger size. Only half of the difference is applied towards the trailer from the sidewall and above the tire tread to a fender or trailer body. That means that you would need more than 1.6 inches above the tread and more than 0.625 inches between the sidewalls and the trailer...

  • Is There a Benefit to Going to a Larger Tire Size
    Yes and no. Yes because if you plan on loading your trailer up to the max GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) then larger tires will last longer simply because they won't be under as much stress. With that being said, as long as you aren't exceeding the weight rating of smaller tires and you are able to remain under the speed rating then the benefit will be minimal. Another thing to note about upgrading the tire size is that you might not have the real estate to properly do so. We recommend...

  • Trailer Tire Replacement for Tire Size of 8.75-16.5 Tires on Heavy Duty Trailer
    Your current 8.75-16.5 tires have an overall diameter of 30.5" and an overall width of 8.75". The closest trailer tire size available to that is 235/80-16 which has an overall diameter of 30.9" and an overall width of about 9.25". So height-wise the tires will be very similar and even though the width is an extra 0.5" it's important to note that as far as clearance goes you're only adding 0.25". For a 235/80-16 trailer tire I highly recommend the Taskmaster Provider trailer tire # TTWTRTM2358016E...

  • What Size Wheel Does 2006 Forest River Cherokee Have
    The size of your wheel on your 2006 Forest River Cherokee is going to be 16 inch diameter by 6 inches wide with a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern like the Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel # AM20741 which would fit and work well.

  • Replacement Trailer Rim for an Excel Trailer that Has 6 Lug Wheels and 16 inch Wheels

  • Backspacing of the Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheel # AM20758
    Sounds like you are either asking for the pilot diameter (the diameter of the hole in the middle of the wheel), which is 3.65 inches, or you are asking about the bolt pattern of the wheel which is 6 on 5-1/2 inch. The backspacing is 3-1/2 inches and there are no hub caps available for this wheel. The closest thing to a white version of this wheel would be the part # AM20741, but it has a larger pilot diameter at 4.27 inches.

Still, we can help you with a wheel only, or with a wheel/tire combination if that is what you prefer. I have provided two links you can click on. One will show you wheels only in the 6 on 5-1/2-inch bolt pattern and the other will show you wheel/tire combinations. In either case you have several options in wheel diameter,...

    We would need to know how big the current brakes are. 10x2-1/4 or 12x2 etc. Sometimes you can re-use the drums from hydraulic brakes for electric brakes, sometimes not. If you are going to go ahead and replace the drums, we would need to know inner and outer bearing numbers. These are stamped right on the bearings. We would also need the bolt pattern of the drums.

    Based on what you mentioned what you are looking for is a 16 inch diameter trailer wheel that is 6 inches wide and has a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern like the # AM20741 that you referenced. This has a weight capacity of 3,050 lbs but if you needed higher we also have the part # AM20742 which is same wheel mostly but with weight capacity of 3,520 lbs.

  • What Wheels Are Available In A 6 on 5-1/2 Inch Bolt Pattern And A 3-9/16 Inch Center Hole
    I have both a 15 inch wheel and a 16 inch wheel that has a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern. The center hole pilot diameter on both sizes is 4.27 inches. The center hole is larger so it will work for you if your trailer has wheel studs on the hub and uses lug nuts to attach the wheel to the hub. You will want to replace your wheel with the exact same size wheel as your other wheel(s). In 15 inch wheels I have the Dexstar White Spoke Trailer Wheel - 15 x 6 Rim - 6 on 5-1/2, # AM20532, and...

  • Replacement Trailer Wheels to Fit 215/85-16 Size Tires
    First of all your tire size, 215/85-16 sounds like it's a passenger vehicle tire and not a trailer tire. Trailer tire sizes begin with "ST" for special trailer. I recommend using ST tires because they have a stiffer sidewall to handle the vertical load of a trailer. If your tires are trailer tires then you're good to go. But if they aren't I would get some trailer tires. The exception is that some LT tires can be used on trailers. Your 7.50-16's that you had were likely LT tires....

  • Recommended Trailer Tire Replacement for 7.00-15 Size Tires
    If you need replacement tires that have at least a 29.4" diameter that your current 7.00-15 tires have then you need size 235/80-16 tires. These have a diameter of 30.9" so they will sit about 0.5" closer to your fender than your current tires. You will need to note the width does change a bit. Your current tires are 7.8" wide while the new size is 9.25" wide. Be sure to check and make sure that you have enough room on your fender for that. We recommend at least 1-1/2" from the side of...
