When you’re hauling serious weight, you want a wheel that won’t flinch. The Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Wheel handles up to 2,860 lbs and keeps things steady with a zero offset. That means the mounting surface lines up right on the centerline for an even load across the hub. It’s a stout setup that holds its shape under stress and stays true mile after mile.
Finding the right match is simple when the specs are clear. This steel wheel measures 15" in diameter by 6" wide and uses a standard 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern with 1/2"-20 wheel bolts and a 4.27" pilot diameter. Whether you’re swapping out a worn rim or matching up with your existing tires, these precise dimensions take the guesswork out of fitment.
Steel strength is great, but only if it lasts. The Dexstar wheel is finished with an e-coat primer topped by a silver powder coat that resists corrosion year after year. That layered protection keeps moisture and salt from eating into the metal, so the wheel looks good and stays solid through all kinds of weather.
You don’t need to overthink mounting hardware—this wheel is designed for common 1/2" studs, with a torque range of 90-120 ft-lbs for a proper clamp load. That spec gives you the confidence that once it’s tightened down, the wheel will stay secure without risking damage to the lugs or hub.
The JJ bead profile makes pairing tires simple while maintaining a reliable seat for consistent air retention. The valve hole measures 0.453", fitting standard valve stems like part # AM20904 or higher-pressure options when needed. It’s those small details that make life easier when you’re setting up your wheels right the first time.
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 this Dexstar 15 inch by 6 inch silver modular steel trailer wheel with a 6 on 5 1/2 inch bolt pattern. Now this wheel's a nice sturdy steel construction. It is a modular design. By that we mean it is the one that has the round holes all the way around. This gives you excellent corrosion resistance, has a nice silver powder coated finish over an e-coat primer.
This is a high quality wheel which will meet the DOT, Department of Transportation, specifications. And this wheel is made in the U.S.A. A few dimensions on the wheel, I wanna give you the diameter of it. It's gonna measure 15 inches and that's measured inside to inside. So if we go across, straight across, there's your 15 inch diameter.
The width on the wheel, in the same way, it's gonna be inside to inside or bead seat to bead seat. There's your 6 inch width, and the bolt pattern on this wheel is a 6 on 5 1/2 inch bolt pattern. And if you wanna measure that on a wheel that's an even number of lugs, like in this case, six. It's pretty simple because the lug holes are directly across from each other. So when you go to measure it, just pick any lug hole, let's say this one, measure from the center of that hole directly across to the center of the hole right across from it.
On this wheel, it'll measure 5 1/2 inches, so it is a 6 lug, 5 1/2 inch bolt pattern. Does use a wheel lug size of 1/2 inch by 20. And the pilot hole diameter, which is the large hole here, goes over the hub on your trailer. Diameter of that opening is 4.27 inches. And the last thing is the capacity on this.
The weight capacity on this wheel is 2,860 pounds. But that'll do it for the review on this Dexstar 15 inch by 6 inch silver modular steel trailer wheel with the 6 on 5 1/2 inch bolt pattern.

Wheel is holding up well no leaks after a year… it is only a spare but it’s nice not having to constantly top off a spare.

Glad to hear that! It's always nice to find parts that match what you have and not have either a mismatched wheel or replace all of them to get something matching. Can be a pain in the butt! How much does your travel trailer weigh?
