The TruRyde #84 Trailer Spindle, # TRU47FR, is compatible with Trailer Hub Assembly # 8-258BTUC1. The hub assembly is designed for use on a 12 to 15 inch wheel with a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern. The tire and wheel combo you have selected, # AM31985, is a match. So you will be able to use all of these components together. The hub assembly comes with the bearings, races, cap, lug nuts, and seals.
