When you’re pulling serious weight, a strong wheel makes all the difference. This Dexstar Steel Mod Trailer Wheel is rated for 3,750 lbs and meets Department of Transportation standards. The 16" x 6" rim uses an 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern with a +0.5 offset, giving a solid stance and dependable balance on the road. The sturdy steel construction keeps things stable mile after mile under heavy loads.
Road grime and moisture can chew through unprotected metal, but this wheel’s finish holds up. The silver sparkle powder coat over an e-coat primer gives excellent corrosion resistance while adding a clean metallic look. It’s built to keep its shine and guard against rust through repeated use in wet or humid conditions.
The +0.5" positive offset moves the wheel slightly inward on the hub for a more compact overall width. It’s a detail that helps line everything up neatly and gives the trailer a tighter, more balanced look. The modular design adds a bit of style without sacrificing strength or simplicity.
When you’re running tires that call for around 110 psi, this wheel pairs perfectly with the high-pressure valve stem part # AM20906. It’s the recommended match to handle higher air loads safely without leaks or valve movement under pressure.
No guessing on hardware here—the wheel fits standard 1/2"-20 or 9/16"-18 bolts and has a 4.90" pilot diameter. It’s easy to mount up with typical trailer hardware while keeping alignment true and vibration minimal once everything is torqued down right.
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 A-M-2-0-7-9-7. This is the Deckstar 16" by 6" silver sparkle mini mod steel trailer wheel with an offset, and the 8 on 6 1/2" hole pattern. Now this wheel is a sturdy steel construction. It is the mini mod design, or also known as a modular design. When they say that, that means that it uses a round holes all the way around the wheel for the design. Now the finish on this, it uses a silver sparkle powder coat finish over an ecoat primer.
Gives you excellent corrosion resistance, and the reason I mention it's a silver sparkle, it is different than the normal silver finish. This one, actually, if you look close into the wheel, it does have a little bit of a sparkle to it. This is a high quality wheel. Meets the department of transportation specifications. This is a Deckstar brand wheel, which is made in the USA.
Now a few specs on this. We're going to start with measuring the diameter. The diameter is always measured inside to inside, where the tire beads would seat. If we take a ruler, the diameter on this wheel. You can see inside to inside's right at 16". Now the width on this wheel, again, it's bead seat to bead seat, so inside to inside.
6", so 16" by 6" is the diameter of the width. This does use a bolt pattern of an 8 on 6 1/2" bolt pattern. If you go to measure that on a wheel that's an even number of lugs, all you have to do is pick any of the holes like this one and measure from the center of that hole, directly across to the center of the hole right across from it. If we take our tape measure again, and go center to center, you can see right at 6 1/2", so 8 lugs, 6 1/2" hole pattern. Does use the wheel lug size of 1/2" by 20.
Or 9/16" by 18. The pilot hole diameter, it's the large hole in the center of the wheel, this goes over the hub on your trailer. Diameter of the opening on this one is 4.9", and this wheel does have a weight capacity of 3,750 pounds, and then the last feature that's very important is this wheel does have an offset. It's a positive 1/2" offset. On an offset on a wheel, basically what your . What they're measuring is most trailer wheels use a 0 offset, so what that means is this mounting surface on the inside of the wheel that goes up against the hub on your trailer. When this mounting surface is right at the center of the wheel, that's a 0 offset. Now when it goes positive, that means that mounting surface moves towards the face, or the outside of the wheel. When it's a negative offset, that mounting surface would move towards the back of the wheel. In this wheel it's a positive 1/2" offset, so this mounting surface right here actually moves 1/2" towards the outside of the wheel, the face of the wheel. When it does that, it will move the tire closer to the trailer. That should do it for the review on part number A-M-2-0-7-9-7. This is the Deckstar 16" by 6" silver sparkle mini mod steel trailer wheel, with an offset, and the 8 on 6 1/2" bolt pattern.

Wheel seems to be of good quality and if back spacing works out I’ll be ordering 4 more so that I will have a spare for my heavy duty trailer .
Fast shipping, accurate description. This is the 2nd purchase from eTrailer I have made bc the first purchase was so impressive and the 2nd purchase was just as great. Thank you eTrailer, you will be my number1 GOTO in this category!
Good product so far and a good price.
The rim was an exact match to the one that we needed to replace (1/2 in offset). The website is great with all the specs needed to know what you are ordering and the videos for each item it above and beyond most sites that only have a generic video to cover a range of items.
Thanks so much!
It’s the right size, it’s not as beefy where the lug nut hook up to the hub, but it’ll work fine…
Just as described in the add
Great response timely shipping
Perfect match to original wheels trailer came with
