This 13" x 4-1/2" steel wheel is made to handle wet, corrosive environments without giving in to rust. Its galvanized finish provides superior protection from corrosion and road grime, so it stays strong and looks good season after season. If you’re around water or heavy weather, this coating is what keeps the wheel from pitting or flaking down the road.
When you’re hauling real weight, a solid load rating matters. This wheel is rated at 1,360 lbs and meets Department of Transportation specifications for reliability on the highway. It’s built with sturdy steel construction and an 8-spoke design that keeps everything balanced and stable under load.
The fit specs make setup simple. This wheel uses a 4 on 4" bolt pattern, a standard 1/2"-20 wheel bolt size, and a 2.65" pilot diameter with a 0 offset. The design centers evenly on modern hubs for smooth rotation and easy mounting without guesswork.
With its 13" diameter and 4-1/2" width, this wheel pairs well with standard trailer tire sizes like ST175/80R13 or ST185/80R13 when you want to step up load capacity or ride quality. Its consistent dimensions make it a dependable choice whether you’re replacing worn rims or refreshing your setup.
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"

Jeff: Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're going to take a look at this Americana 13 inch by four and a half inch galvanized eight spoke steel trailer wheel with the four on four inch bolt pattern. Now this wheel's a sturdy steel construction. It is the eight spoke design with the galvanized finish and the galvanized finish provides a nice superior protection from rust and corrosion. It's mainly used in Marine applications like on a boat trailer. This is a nice high quality wheel meets the DoT, Department of Transportation specifications.
Few specs on this, we're going to measure the diameter and the width. So if I get my tape measure and when you measure the diameter, it's always measured inside to inside.So if we go inside to inside, you can see there's your 13 inch diameter. The width there'll be the same way, it's inside to inside. four and a half inches wide. Now this wheel does have a bolt pattern of four on four inches and on a wheel that's an even number of lugs like in this case four, it's pretty easy because the holes are right across from each other.
So when you measure it, you just pick any hole. Let's say this one and you'll measure from the center of this hole directly across to the center of the hole right across from it. So on this wheel, it'll be four inches. So it's a four lug four inch bolt pattern. This wheel does use the wheel lug size of a half inch by 20.Pilot hole diameter, which is this large hole here in the center.
It goes over the hub on your axle. Diameter of that is 2.65 inches. And the weight capacity on this wheel is 1,360 pounds.But that should do it for the review on the Americana 13 inch by four and a half inch galvanized eight spoke steel trailer wheel with the four on four inch bolt pattern.

Hey John. I'm sorry to hear about your wheels. Sometimes when they go through the galvanize process it can create inconsistencies such as running with the coating and an appearance of clumping. Let me know if you have any questions about this, I'm here to help.
