How to Measure 5 Lug Trailer Wheel to Determine Bolt Pattern
Question:
I have a trailer with a 5 lug wheel 195/65x15 It has a 1 bolt to 2 bolt C/L spacing of 2 7/8inch out of 5 bolts. I dont see that here. It has a 3 1/4inch center hole for the axle hub. Having trouble finding a wheel and tire for it for a spare. What have we got equivilent for a truck wheel/tire assembly? Thanks

You most likely have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern but you would want to re-measure to be certain. The following dimensions from one stud center to the other will tell you which you have:
2-5/8" - the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2
2-3/4" - the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4
3" - the bolt pattern is 5 on 5
3-1/4" - the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2
It also doesn't look like you have a standard trailer tire size on your trailer either. The closest we have is the 205/75-15 which I attached a link to. You would need to select your bolt pattern from the filters to see the correct fits.
