Wheel With 15 Diameter and 5 on 5-1/2 Bolt Pattern Needed for Antique Camper Trailer
Question:
I have this antique camper trailer with split rims, I want to upgrade to a different rim, the rim does say 5x5.50 and they are 15inch and it does have some other letters and numbers also but cant read them all, now my center of the rim is 3 and 3/4 approximately any chance you would have some rims to fit ? And help is greatly appreciated thanks

We do have an option that fit the description that you gave except they have a larger pilot hole diameter. Most trailer wheels are lug-centric, which the exception of some older trailers, this means that the weight rests on the lugs and not the spindle. Having a wheel with a slightly larger pilot hole is acceptable for this situation. If your wheels install via lug nuts then they are lug-centric, but if they install via bolts that means they are hub-centric.
I recommend the Vesper part # TA37RR which is a 15" wheel that measures 5" wide (bead seat to bead seat) and has a 5 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern. It is rated for 2,160 lbs, has a pilot hole diameter of 4-1/4" and has a -.067" offset.
