Replacement 13" X 5" Aluminum Wheels with 5 on 4-1/2" Lug Pattern

Question:

Will this work on a camper? My tires I just purchased are 6HO4541 8 ply with a load rating of 1710. This wheels load rating is 1660lbs. Is this wheel underrated ? My bolt pattern is 5 x 4.5 and rim recommend for tires per manufacturer is 13”x5”.

The Aluminum Viking Series Valhalla Trailer Wheel # AX02350545BMFL will work for your camper as long as you do not exceed the wheel weight rating of 1,660lbs and you can fit the 13" wheels on your 5 on 4-1/2" hub. You will want to verify what the maximum axle weight rating is on your trailer to ensure that you do not exceed the manufacturer specifications. Tires and wheels will often have different weight ratings as they are manufactured by different companies.

The Aluminum Hi-Spec Series S5 Trailer Wheel # AM22323HWTB is the same 13" X 5" wheel size with a 5 on 4-1/2" lug pattern. But it has a higher weight rating at 1,740lbs per wheel. This would allow you the higher weight capacity of your tire at 1,710lbs but be sure to not exceed the camper manufacturers maximum weight rating.
