At this time the only wheels that we have with a 5 on 5 inch bolt pattern are 15 inch wheels, see link. All of our 14 inch wheels have either the vintage style 4 on 9.44 inch pattern or the more common 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern, see link. I have also posted a video on trailer wheel measurements for you to use to verify the correct dimensions of your trailer wheels.

It sounds like your trailer may have a vehicle wheel mounted on the axle. You would need to upgrade to a 15 inch size wheel and tire combination to stay with the 5 on 5 inch hub, or find a 14 inch wheel that has a 0 inch offset that is compatible with the weight of your trailer axles and has the correct pattern.

If you need to stay with the 14 inch size wheel and tire combination, for clearance reasons, you could consider replacing the hubs on your trailer. We would need the inner and outer bearing part numbers and the seal part number to select a hub with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern to change your wheels over to the more standard trailer bolt pattern. Also let me know if you have brakes on the trailer or not and whether they are electric or hydraulic.
