Dexstar Vintage Steel Wheel Recommendation as a Spare for a 1978 Winnebago Tag Along Trailer
Question:
I am trying to buy a spare tire rim for a 23foot 1978 Winnebago tag along travel trailer. It is a 15-inch rim with 4 bolts and has a 9.44 distance between the outside bolts. It is a star shaped rim with bolts that screw in, not lug nuts. Distance between the adjacent bolts appear to be about 6 5/8. Handles a P205/75R15 tire and is about 6 wide where the tire mounts. Any help would be appreciated greatly.

I would recommend you get a Dexstar Vintage Steel Wheel w/ 5 mm Offset # AM20395, this rim is 5 inches wide which is a little thinner than your current wheels that are on your 1978 Winnebago Travel Trailer.
If you need a tire as well I would recommend a Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10244 for a load range C or # TR20515D for a load range D.
I attached an FAQ article on trailer tires for you to check out.
