When you’re towing gear or supplies day after day, you need a strong, reliable wheel. This Dexstar steel spoke wheel delivers with a 1,660-lb capacity and solid 13" x 4-1/2" construction that meets Department of Transportation standards. It’s designed to handle real loads without flexing or fatigue, so your setup stays steady mile after mile.
Moisture and road grime can wear down a wheel fast, but this one’s built to fight back. The white powder coat finish is layered over an e-coat primer for excellent corrosion resistance. From wet highways to humid storage lots, this finish keeps its clean look and helps the wheel stay protected over the long haul.
Getting the right fit shouldn’t be a guessing game. This wheel uses the common 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern with a 3.19" pilot diameter and zero offset, so alignment stays true on the hub. The wheel bolt size is 1/2"-20, giving you a simple, secure mount that works exactly as intended.
No need to chase down odd combinations—this wheel is confirmed to fit standard trailer tire sizes including 175/80-13 and 185/80-13. Whether you’re replacing worn tires or upgrading for a better ride, the match is straightforward and ensures dependable performance once mounted.
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"

Today we're going to review part number AM20232, this is the Americana 13 inch by 4 1/2 inch steel spoke trailer wheel with the 5 on 4 1/2 inch bolt pattern. It is white in color. This wheel is made of a sturdy steel construction, has a nice white powder finish over an E-coat primer, give excellent corrosion resistance. This is your standard 8 spoke pattern, like most trailer wheels have the triangular openings. This is a high quality wheel that will meet the Department of Transportation specifications. The rim dimension on this is going to be 13 inch diameter by 4 1/2 inches wide.
Basically when you go to measure a wheel, you're going to be measuring where the tire would seat on the wheel and basically when a tire is installed the beads of the tire would seat right in here. What you're going to do is to measure the diameter, we'll measure inside the inside, which is bead seat to bead seat. In this case, if we go inside the inside, you can see 13 inch for the diameter. On the width, we'll do the exact same. This is where the beads would seat, so inside the inside. That would be 4 1/2 inches, so 13 inch diameter by 4 1/2 inches wide.
The bolt pattern you can see is a 5 on 4 1/2 inch bolt pattern. The way to measure that is on a wheel that has an odd number of lugs, like in this case, 5, just pick any lug hole that you're going to start from and then just go directly across to a hole right across from it. So either one of these. We're going to start with this one. When you measure it, you'll measure from the center where you start to the outer or furthest edge of whatever hole you choose.
In this case, we're going to go here to here. If I measure center to the outer edge, you can see it's 4 1/2 inches. That gives you your 5 on 4 1/2 inch bolt pattern. This does use a wheel lug size of 1/2 inch by 20. The pilot hole diameter, which is is this large hole in the center of the wheel, goes over the hub on your trailer. The width on that is going to be 3.19 inches for the pilot diameter and the weight capacity on this wheel is 1, 660 pounds.
That should do it for the review on part number AM20232, the Americana 13 inch by 4 1/2 inch steel spoke trailer wheel with the 5 on 4 1/2 inch bolt pattern. .

very happy great product fast shipping
Great price for a good product. Matches my other wheel almost perfectly.
They look and work great on our horse drawn wagon
Would have rated higher if it had a valve stem. Wheels I've gotten from other vendors did. Other than that, it's a good value.
The product perfectly matches the one it was intent to replace.
Delivery were done as was promised and on-time.
Customer service - first class.
Very happy with the product I ordered. Will deal with etrailer with all my trailer needs!
The items arrived in great shape and the instulation of the spare tire carrier was simple and took less then 5 minuntes.
Excellent product at great price. Fast shipping. Local stores were unable to get this wheel, but etrailer came thru for me.
I’m writing this review before I’ve used these wheels...mostly to offer this company a shout-out for their great inventory, pricing, and customer service. I’ve come back to them with my trailering needs year after year.
This company could give lessons in customer service to just about everybody. They’ve always provided a top-notch customer experience, but still keep finding places where they can improve it even more.
Kudos!
Everything good , on time , good choice
Great product at a great price. Quick shipping. I would definitely buy here again.
Easy to order. Fast delivery!
Angela was very helpful in helping me make a order. I really like my new rim lug nuts and chrome center caps. If I need anything else I will call Angela. Thanks
Tommy Sorry it took me so long to write a review on the purchase of my wheels from you . I received them the other day a lot sooner than I expected an I am well please with them. I am very happy with the price also. If an when I ever need any more trailer parts I will be shopping u an will tell my friends u also. Thank you Lamar Boatright
The wheel was delivered to me covered with years/months of "shelf soot", and with 3 small paint chips on the face of the rim.
Hopefully the installed tire will cover these chips, or I'll retouch them with white enamel.
It's looks like a good product that will NOW be cared for.
mounted tires and they are on the trailer and look great! Hope they will last a long time in and out of the water. the old wheels are rusty and nasty looking. Did not hold up well at all. Thank you for your quick response at shipping the wheels. Looking forward to doing more business with you in the future.
The wheel seems to be made from 2 pieces with a weld in the middle, which is not of greatest quality. It seems to have some heat deformation from the weld, but for a utility trailer, it is acceptable, but not great. The wheel is not perfectly true and even all the way around; thus only 3 stars. It is not worth returning, but if it was for a high speed highway or auto use, the wheel would not be considered of sufficiently acceptable quality and I would have returned it.
This was the 5th order (2 trailer tires and a steel wheel for a spare) that I have placed with etrailer.com. In the past, I have ordered trailer hitches, a bike rack, receiver lock and spare tire carrier. As with the previous 4 orders, the quality of the products is top notch and the quality of the service was excellent. The free shipping has made these experiences truly outstanding!!! Keep up the good work.
Thanks,
Ange
Nice wheel for a great price plus fast shipping from eTrailer
Rim looks quite good and easily mountable. Wish it was available with a mounted tire (Maxxis 185 80R 13) but I had to order that separately from a different company. I will buy this rim again if I need another one.

Its working great, as expected!
The trailer I bought last year didn't have a spare, so I went to eTrailer. These Dexstar wheels are good quality USA piece that matched what I already had.
I love it!
The rim provided me with the spare tire I need for cross country traveling.
Etrailer has the products and the process is easy. Dexstar white spoked are my preferred trailer wheels. Steel, spoked, and made in the USA.
Great quality product, faster shipping than anyone else online.
Hi,
I ordered four new wheels, AM20232, chrome centers and chrome lug nuts, for a older camping trailer we are re-finishing.
The prices were very competitive and arrived ahead of schedule! I have the new tires mounted and they do look great! Thanks to you and your staff at etrailer for the prompt service and great products. Made my day!
Regards,
Chris
