This 16" x 6" Dexstar Steel Mini Mod trailer wheel is built for serious hauling. With a 3,750-lb capacity and a maximum air pressure rating of 110 psi, it’s ready for heavy-duty towing setups that demand strength and stability. The zero offset keeps weight balanced across the hub for predictable tracking and even wear mile after mile.
If your trailer spends time in the elements, this wheel’s two-step finish is what keeps it looking good. It starts with an e-coat primer and finishes with a black powder coat that seals out moisture and road grime. The steel modular design adds durability while resisting rust and chips from daily use or highway travel.
Fitment doesn’t get much easier. The wheel uses the common 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern and a 4.9" pilot diameter, pairing cleanly with standard trailer hubs that match those specs. It’s lug centric, so use standard trailer lug nuts like the CE Smith # CE11051 for secure mounting and even clamping force.
Every Dexstar Steel Mini Mod wheel meets Department of Transportation standards for strength and safety. That means it’s built to perform reliably at highway speeds under real towing conditions. Whether you’re pulling long distances or making local hauls, it’s a solid choice for consistent, confident performance trip after trip.
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"

Ratings & Reviews
The wheel looks great, no issues with paint, or any imperfections. Take note though these do not ship with valve stems, which was an extra expense to get added on to them when the tire shop was getting the set up.
I shopped around my area and was unable to find good quality rims for my car hauling trailer. These steel wheels were affordable and great for their price. So good I got 2 for an extra spare
Good trailer wheel. Great price and fast delivery. Joanne even refunded my sales tax after I sent her my agricultural tax exemption.
Products are what they are....cheap...black...steel....rims. My only complaint is the packaging. If they are going to be placed loosely in cardboard boxes, my opinion is that they should have an edge protector on the edges. Mine are scuffed up and dinged up...down to metal. Granted, they are going on a stock trailer and will be hammered on the rest of their lives....I still spent over $xxx to buy 6 of them and would expect them to start life at least decently perfect. Other than that, they are great. I will get them mounted this week. I'm sure the knuckleheads that mount them will end up beating them up worse than they are as well. For this....4 stars out of 5.
Arrived as expected! Great condition just what I needed for my trailer! Light weight compared to other steel wheels I was looking at buying. Powder coat makes for a durable finish
Perfect replacement for the OEM aluminum wheels. One of my rims were damaged and I couldn’t find an exact match. Instead of buying four expensive rims I opted for the steal and dolled them up with chrome trim.
E trailer never fails! Quick shipping and a great product. E trailer has even improved the packaging for these wheels so they cannot shift around in the sturdy box since I bought wheels last year. Customer for life!
Good product at a good price.
Just purchased a new trailer and it came with no spare tire. The tire shops only had white or grey wheels. Quick google search and etrailer saved the day. The wheel arrived in a couple of days as promised and looks much better than the paint job I would have had to put on the tire shops wheel.

They look good on my new trailer. I am very happy with my purchase.
I purchased four of these rims to replace the aluminum rooms on my fifth wheel camper. They arrived right on schedule and a week later I took my trailer to a tire shop and had them installed
They look great with the chrome center caps and lug nuts from the old rims! Very economical, they look great and are made in the USA!
Great set of rims
The wheel was just as described and arrived very quickly! I have always been pleased with etrailer.com!
I have ordered before several times and always gotten good service and quality.
Was just whatvi ordered..
I've had this rim on for exactly one year with no issues on my 14k big tex dump trailer.
Looks good, seems sturdy.
It was used as spare tire and it fits perfectly. But I got a notice on my trailer tire, but there was a recall on all the ones that were made in China my tires were not made in China but in Taiwan. I couldn’t get them to check your tire to see if it was in the recall or not. It was made in China. Can you check to see if this tire is in recall or not? Thanks for checking back with me!
Great product, excellent service shipping and follow up. Ordered Sat night, package arrived Tuesday.. etrailer and Dexter have earned a customer for life. Impressive!
Excellent new rim. Fit my trailer tire perfectly and provides peace of mind should I experience problems on the road. I know this rim is more than enough for my axle.
Awesome replacement, it helped having the little decal so I could match up original rim. Pulling into my property hit a stump that was hidden in the grass and folded the rim where the bead seats. You guys had the exact replacement, now I’m back having a spare.
I love these wheels! They are everything I expected and more ; they not only look good , they are strong enough for the weight I haul. They were packaged good and I received them without any flaws. Thank you!

I love the wheels! No problems whatsoever. I would buy them again!
Only place online I know of to get black 8 lug steel wheels. Put 5 of these on my all black dump trailer with brand new chrome lug nuts and they look NASTY!
They are also rated for the heavy weight I need unlike some other knock offs out there.
Long time Etrailer customer here and they have so much selection compared to anyone else they keep sucking me back in!
I have to say average as I just got them and you are asking for a review. How can anyone give a review of a product such as wheels on the day they are received? Only thing I do know is that do not believe this company when they say they will be delivered the next day. They were a day and 1/2 late from the promised date. POOR customer service.

Hey Jeffery! I asked about this and we reached out to Americana and we were not part of any recall thus far. :) Are you interested in a certain kind of tire I can help you track down?
