Question:

Looking for a spare tire and rim for a Zieman F-511 trailer. Zieman tells me that it is a 13inch rim with a zero offset and it is a 5 on 4 1/2.

We can help you select a suitable spare wheel/tire for your trailer that uses 13-inch wheels with a 5-on-4-1/2-inch bolt pattern.

You will want to use the same tire type (bias ply or radial), size and one of the same load range as what is currently on the trailer. It is not a good idea to mix tires of different types, sizes or load ranges.

You can use the linked page to see all 13-inch wheel/tire combinations with the 5-on-4-1/2 bolt pattern. Just click on the tire type, size and load range you need. You can also choose the wheel material, aluminum, galvanized or powder-coated steel.

For example, for a ST175/80R13 radial trailer tire on a 5-on-4-1/2 white steel wheel use part # AM31985.

Trailer tires should always be inflated to the full psi pressure noted on the tire sidewall. It is never appropriate to under- or over-inflate a trailer tire. A helpful article on trailer tires is linked for your reference.
