Highest Capacity 15 Inch Diameter Wheel with 5 on 5 Inch Bolt Pattern
Question:
I have a Big Tex trailer 35SV-10 foot box with a 3,500 Dexter axle and standard rims. I have upgraded from ST 205/75 R15 Load Range C Radial Tires to ST 225/75 R15 Load Range E Radial Tires tires. Do you have heavy duty rims that support 2,860#?

Helpful Expert Reply:
Since you have upgraded from a ST205/75-15 tire to a ST225/75-15 tire you are also going to want to upgrade from a 15" diameter x 5" wide wheel to a 15" diameter x 6" wide. The highest rated wheel capacity we have with a 15" diameter and 5 on 5" bolt pattern is the Taskmaster Steel Mod Wheel # 560550SM1 which is rated at 2,830 lbs per wheel or 5,660 lbs per axle. Please keep in mind that although the wheels may be rated at 5,660 lbs per axle, the axle is only rated at 3,500 lbs so this will be you limiting factor.
I have attached a help article on measuring bolt pattern in addition to a review video on the above wheels for you as well.
