Valve Stem and Pilot Hole Size for 12 x 4 Inch, 5 on 4-1/2 Trailer Wheels

Question:

Michael H recommended the following rims as possible replacement for my Trailstar basspro boat trailer. #AM22319HWT and #AM20163 My questions are: Will these rims fit if my pilot hole is 2 15/16 inches ? I got this measurement from my spare tire rim. I think there is small amount of space around the hub of the trailer. My other question: What value stem would you recommend? Thank you

For any of the recommended wheels you can use valve stem # AM20903. The pilot hole on all of the wheels is 3.19 inches in diameter which is a common size. I have no doubt that the wheels will fit your hubs especially since you mentioned the spare's pilot hole is slightly larger than the hub where the wheel mounts.
