Features to know about

Built for Heavy Loads with Reliable Strength: 3,520-lb Capacity Rating

When you’re hauling real weight, this 16" x 6" Dexstar Steel Mini Mod wheel gives you the solid feel of heavy-duty steel construction. It’s rated for 3,520 lbs and meets DOT specifications, so it’s ready for tough towing conditions without worry. The 1/2"-20 wheel bolt size and 0 offset keep the load centered and balanced on the hub for consistent performance.

Corrosion Resistance That Lasts: White Powder Coat over E-Coat Primer

A clean finish that holds up trip after trip. The white powder coat is applied over an e-coat primer to fight rust and road grime, giving it excellent corrosion resistance. Whether it’s rain or humidity, that layer helps the wheel stay looking good and rolling strong.

Straightforward Fitment Every Time: 6 on 5-1/2 Bolt Pattern with 4.27" Pilot Diameter

No second guessing when it’s time to match up your hubs. This wheel uses the common 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern and a 4.27" pilot diameter for dependable alignment. The design also includes a valve stem hole diameter of 0.622" to fit standard stems cleanly without modification.

Balanced Design for Confident Towing: Zero Offset Steel Rim

A zero offset means the mounting surface sits right in the center of the hub, keeping your setup balanced and tracking true behind you. That neutral fit helps maintain stability across loads and road conditions while preventing unnecessary stress on bearings or suspension parts.

Determining Bolt Pattern

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.

Center to Center
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).

Center to Outside Edge
Common configurations: 5 on 4.5" (most popular), 5 on 5", 5 on 4.75", 5 on 5.5"

This wheel (AM20742)was an alternative to the wheel I originally ordered back in September (AM20741). The original wheel ordered was not available and was not expected to be received until January 2022. The alternative met the size and load requirements for our RV and was available in stock. Good news is eTrailer shipped the wheel and I received it earlier than expected. Bad news is that the packaging was terrible. The wheel was not protected with cardboard or plastic and was scratched upon delivery. Also, per the attached photo, it must have been sitting in a warehouse for a long time. Note the manufacturing date of 05/18/14. I was expecting a new wheel, not one that was already 7+ years old. I will keep the wheel as is and use as a spare since it is not worth the hassle and cost of returning it to etrailer. I hope they can improve their packaging procedures.

Oh, that's great to hear that the shipping was faster than you expected! You can definitely take your time in writing the review. Unfortunately, we have the review feedback email set to send out as soon as the delivery is confirmed. Don't worry though, I will email you in about a week or so to see if you'd like to update with how the wheels are working for you.

  • Can 16" x 6" Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel Replace 7" Wide Wheel
    Hello again Hayden. Wheel width is measured bead seat to bead seat, see the attached photo. Did you measure the overall width? I'm guessing you did, and that measurement would be about at 7" for the 16" x 6" # AM20742. Assuming you need a 16" wheel with a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern I'm sure this will fit. Did you get the new equalizers and coupler on your trailer?

  • Recommended Made in USA 16 x 6 Trailer Wheels With 6 on 5-1/2 Bolt Pattern
    There are wheels made here in the USA but to get the right one I'd need to know your wheel bolt pattern and the wheel diameter you need. If you are unsure of what your wheel bolt pattern is or how to find it, I've added a link to a help article on how to determine wheel bolt pattern for you to take a look at. If you get back to me with that information I'd be happy to help you find the best wheel for your trailer.

  • What is the Speed Rating of Dexstar Wheel?
    There is no speed rating for wheels such as the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod # AM20742. The speed rating has to do with the tires; for example the Taskmaster ST235/80R16 # TTWTRTM2358016E that fits 16 inch wheels with a load range capacity of E has a max speed of 81 mph.

  • Steel 16" Trailer Wheels With 6 on 5-1/2" Bolt Pattern
    Here is a list of our 16" steel trailer wheels which have the 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern. We will not have any wheels which have the 95.4mm pilot hole you are needing which should not likely be an issue since trailers will typically use a coned Lug Nut # CE11051 which lug centers the wheel rather than hub centering the wheel like several vehicles will require. If your trailer hub is hub centric and uses a Flange Nut # LI84FR you will need to have an centric ring adapter made to fit the wheels....

  • How Do I Know If My Wheels Will Handle Higher PSI Tires?
    The wheel on a trailer will typically always be higher than any tire that can be mounted. The limiting factory is the valve stem. A solid metal one, like the Americana Metal, Bolt-In Valve Stem # AM20906, will be rated to to 200 psi, whereas a valve stem that is either partly or completely rubber, it will at the very most be rated up to 100 psi. If your valve stems are not currently all metal ones, I highly recommend replacing them with the # AM20906. However, from the picture you sent,...
