Available Trailer Wheels in Size 16 x 7 Without Offset
Question:
Aluminum HWT Hi-Spec Series 03 Mod Trailer Wheel w/-8mm Offset - 16inch x 7inch Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 I like this wheel and this price BUT I have been told to only replace with a 0 offset wheel. My 5th wheel is a 2002 HR Alumascape 28 purchased new and ordered with Dexter Neverlube axles. Wanting to change to 16 inch wheels from 15 inch. Axles 33 inches apart from center of hub and leaf springs. The question is do you have this wheel in a 0 offset for about the same price? I dont want it to be rubbing my fender skirt.

The specific wheel design of the HWT Hi-Spec Series 03 Mod Trailer Wheel # AM22657 is not available without offset.
If your interest in increasing trailer tire size is to avoid blowouts then it may be possible to stay with the same tire/wheel size but move to a higher load range tire.
A 16 x 7-inch wheel can accept trailer tires of sizes ST235/80-16 and ST235/85-16. For example, we have tires such as Taskmaster # TTWPRG235R16 which is size ST235/85-16 and that carries a weight capacity of 4400-lbs at 110-psi, a G Load Range rating.
