Does Trailer Wheel Bore Need to Match Exactly When Picking Out Replacement
Question:

Expert Reply:
Since trailer wheels center on the lug nuts and not the center bore you don't have to match the pilot diameters exactly. The biggest thing is that as long as the pilot diameter is larger than the hub bore the wheel will fit and work fine. So you could use the part # AM20353 that you referenced. Once you tighten down the lug nuts the wheel will be perfectly centered on the trailer hub.
