Loose lug nuts are the last thing you want to worry about. The beveled stud holes on this wheel seat it firmly against the hub, keeping everything snug mile after mile. Once the wheel is mounted, it stays put without constant retightening.
This modular steel wheel is made to handle serious use. With a 2,200-lb load rating, it provides a solid foundation for repeated trips and heavy loads. The steel build holds up through long drives and rough pavement, giving you confidence every time you tow.
The 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern is one of the most common out there, which makes finding a replacement or spare simple. With a 3.19" pilot diameter and 1/2"-20 wheel bolt size, it fits up easily and delivers a clean, balanced setup that just works.
The modular cutouts give this 14" x 5-1/2" rim a practical style that looks good without being flashy. Its black powder coat finish resists chips and corrosion, keeping the wheel looking sharp while standing up to moisture and road grime over 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 Lionshead 14-inch by 5 1/2-inch black modular steel trailer wheel with the 5 on 4 1/2-inch bolt pattern. Now this is a steel wheel, has the modular design, which is sturdy and corrosion-resistant. And the modular design is the one that has the round holes that go all the way around the wheel. The rust-resistant finish on this includes a black powder coat on the front and even on the back of the wheel. And if you notice, the center cap is not included.
If you do want a center cap, we do sell those separately on our website. You do wanna make sure to get one that'll have the same diameter as this pilot hole, 'cause when you do install that center cap, it will go through this hole. The diameter on this pilot hole is 3.19 inches. But also, if you notice right down here, the valve stem is included. It is pre-installed in the wheel.
And this wheel does meet the DOT, Department of Transportation and the SAE J1204 specifications. The wheel is made in the USA. Now, I do want to give you some dimensions on this. We're gonna measure it. The diameter and the width.
And the diameter, when you measure it, it's always measured inside to inside or bead seat to bead seat. So if we take out a tape measure, and if we go straight across, inside, inside, there's your 14-inch diameter. The width is gonna be the same way. Bead seat to bead seat or inside to inside. There's your 5 1/2-inch width.
And the bolt pattern on this wheel is a 5 on 4 1/2-inch bolt pattern. And if you wanna measure that bolt pattern on a wheel like this, that's an odd number of lugs, which is five. What you'll need to do is pick any hole, let's say this one, and then you're gonna measure across to either one of these holes. But when you measure, it's from the center of the starting hole to the furthest edge of whichever hole you measure too. So on this one, if we measured, it'd be 4 1/2 inches. So that's telling you that it is a 5 on 4 1/2-inch bolt pattern. This does use a wheel lug size of a half inch by 20, and the weight capacity on this wheel is 2,200 pounds. Now we do also offer many other items for your trailer. Click on the Trailer tab that's at the top of our website page. And also if you have any other additional questions regarding this part or any other item we carry, please feel free to reach out to us so that we can get all of your questions answered. But that's gonna do it for our look at the Lionshead 14-inch by 5 1/2-inch black modular steel trailer wheel with the 5 on 4 1/2-inch bolt pattern.

Ratings & Reviews
Thank you to Rachel A. who went over and beyond what was expected. She is very knowledgable was able to find a match for my rims with limited information. I highly recommend to others and will definitely contact her and your company for future trailer needs.
Matched my original perfect. Construction was solid and seems to be holding up well.
I purchased 4 of these 13" Rims to replace the factory spec Rims that came with my Boat Trailer & I could not be happier. I used my existing Tires (ST175/80D13) and had them changed out with no Issue - If you want to upgrade your Trailer Tire rims without spending $600 Dollars and look good doing it these are for you. From the Payment process to the Shipping & Receiving, All went perfect! I will shop at etrailer.com again. Thank you
Quality wheel. Exactly as advertised
I had aluminum rims on fifth wheel trailer (not sure what brand they were) but the aluminum would hair line crack rendering the wheel use less. I called James at etrailer, told him my problem. I wanted a rim as close to the original as possible and he came up with a solution. As I followed him on my laptop he said you’ll also need these valve stems, these wheel nuts, these Center caps. In a matter of minutes I placed the order and knew exactly what I was getting because of James expertise. I highly recommend the lions head aluminum rim.
Great service fast shipping

Excellent product
Too bad this is a replacement wheel forthe wheel and tires you shipped on 7/2022.
2 years old and a weld failure, No warranty for this manufacturing defect.
fast shipping
Ordered 8 lug 16 x 7 Polished Aluminum rim. Shipped 6 lug 15 x 6 steel rim. I know, it is hard to tell the difference, right?
Called trailer customer service. Oh, that is wrong, I we have the right one in stock, I will see if I can get it shipped next week, we are busy.
If you are going to order, call to make sure they are not too busy to get it right!
This is my first purchase from Etrailer and I am impressed how fast they shipped this steel rim I ordered as a spare for my new enclosed trailer. It ended up being the exact rim my trailer came with ,so I was very happy. It’s a nice sturdy rim, and the welds looked good as they should. A+
Just what I needed for a farm feed trailer. Thanks, Greg H
Aluminum discounted wheel came as described with a few slight scratches. Great deal !!!!!
Nice Wheels and fast shipping.
shipping was fast and wheels look good
Tire and rim fits perfectly on trailer!
Nice wheel. I had a friend, who is in the tire business, mount a tire. I asked him what he thought of the rim and he told me it was as beefy as I would need.
Kevin was great to work with on my replacement wheel after I lost a wheel bearing someplace in Wisconsin headed back to KC. Great customer service and communication!!!
Great quality and fast shipping!
Two of the rims were damaged in transit. When I opened the box there was no padding in the box. The two rims were knocking against each other. I submitted an email to customer service three days ago. I have not heard from them.
