When you’re hauling serious weight, the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel steps up with a 6,050-lb rating and zero offset for balanced support. Each 17-1/2" x 6-3/4" rim is hub-piloted and designed to handle demanding loads with 8 on 6-1/2" bolt spacing and 5/8" wheel bolts. It’s a setup that gives you the confidence to roll fully loaded without second-guessing your gear.
Salt spray, rain, and road grime won’t take this one down. The rustproof aluminum build keeps corrosion away while cutting unnecessary weight. The silver Lynx Series design looks sharp and stays that way, even after long exposure to wet or humid conditions. It’s a practical upgrade that keeps your trailer looking clean and ready for the next trip.
The hub-piloted layout uses flange nuts (sold separately) for solid mounting and load distribution across the wheel face. That means consistent torque and less stress on your studs when you’re pulling heavy. With a 4.75" pilot diameter and 8 on 6-1/2" pattern, the fit is exact and stable mile after mile.
This wheel meets Department of Transportation specifications, so you know it’s built for highway use under real towing conditions. Every dimension—from the 17-1/2" diameter to the 4.75" pilot bore—matches what serious haulers expect from a premium aluminum wheel backed by a limited lifetime structural warranty.
1. Count the lug holes
Look at the wheel hub or the back of the wheel and count how many lug holes there are(also called bolt holes).
Common configurations include: 4-lug, 5-lug, 6-lug and 8 lug
2a. For even lug counts (4-lug, 6-lug, 8-lug)
Measure from the center of one lug hole directly across to the center of the hole opposite it.
Common configurations: 4 on 4", 6 on 5.5", 8 on 6.5"
2b. For odd lug counts (5-lug)
Measure from the center of one lug hole to the outer edge of the hole directly across (not center-to-center since there's no directly opposite hole).
Common configurations: 5 on 4.5" (most popular), 5 on 5", 5 on 4.75", 5 on 5.5"

Hello, everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at the Lionshead 17 1/2 inch by 6 3/4 inch Lynx silver aluminum trailer wheel with the 8 on 6 1/2 inch bolt pattern. Now, this is an aluminum wheel, it's durable, lightweight, and rustproof. And this is the attractive Link Series wheel you can see, which is an eight-spoke design. Has a nice silver finish on it, and then they machined the edge of the spokes and also the lip to give it a nice shiny finish. It does use an automotive-grade clear coat finish on the front to help protect from scuffs and scratches.
As you can see, the valve stem right over here is included, it is installed. And the center cap is not included. If you do want a center cap, we do sell those separately on our website. You do wanna make sure to get a center cap that'll have the same diameter as this pilot hole here, 'cause when you install that center cap, it would go through this hole. The diameter on this pilot hole is 4.75 inches.
This wheel does meet the DOT, Department of Transportation specifications, and the SAE J1204 standards. Few dimensions on this, we're gonna measure the diameter, which is always measured inside to inside, and then we're also gonna measure the width. So first, with the diameter, you can see if we go inside to inside, there's your 17 1/2 inch diameter. The width, which will be measured inside to inside or bead seat to bead seat, and there you can see is gonna be right at 6 3/4 inches. Now, the bolt pattern on this wheel is an 8 on 6 1/2 inch bolt pattern.
And if you wanna measure that bolt pattern, the way to do it on a wheel that's an even number of lugs, it's pretty easy, because the lug holes are directly across from each other. So to measure the bolt pattern, all you have to do is pick any hole, let's say this one. Measure from the center of this hole directly across to the center of the hole across from it. And on this wheel, it would measure 6 1/2 inches. So that's telling you this is an 8 on 6 1/2 inch bolt pattern.
This will use a wheel lug size of 5/8 inch by 18. And the weight capacity on this wheel is 6,050 pounds. But that should do it for a look at the Lionshead 17 1/2 inch by 6 3/4 inch Lynx silver aluminum trailer wheel with the 8 on 6 1/2 inch bolt pattern.

Hey Kevin. I double checked what we carry and you're right, we don't list that size. I checked with Lionshead and they are telling me that the correct center cap for this wheel is part # LHCS109-SI60C. I know it doesn't list it as a fit for the 4.75 but based off what Lionhead is saying, it should still fit.
