I'll start off by saying that we do have a number of 15 x 6 steel wheels with a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern; something like the Dexstar # AM20537 would give you a nice, basic steel wheel with those specs. Similar wheels to this are also available in a black powder coating with part # AM20504. I have linked our entire selection of steel wheels that are 15" diameter and 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern for you to look through as well, in case you're looking for something a bit different.

Just as an FYI, trailer wheels will not typically have a backspacing or offset of any kind. To measure the backspacing you would take a straight edge and lay it diagonally across the inboard flange of the wheel. Take a tape measure and measure the distance from where the straight edge contacts the inboard flange to the hub mounting pad of the wheel. This measurement is backspace.

If you don't see something that you like and can provide photos of your current wheels I might be able to take a look and find something that would be similar for you.
