Features to know about

Built for Heavy-Duty Hauling: 4,850-lb Capacity per Wheel

When you’re pulling serious weight on long trips, you need a wheel that can take it. The Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel measures 17-1/2" x 6-3/4" and is rated for 4,850 lbs. It’s built to meet DOT specifications, using a tough aluminum construction that’s both durable and lightweight. The 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern and 9/16"-18 wheel bolt size give you a secure, high-capacity setup that stays steady under load.

Locks Down Tight and Stays That Way: Steel Lug Nut Inserts

Constantly re-torquing lug nuts is no fun. This wheel uses pressed-in steel inserts in the lug nut wells to prevent wear in the aluminum and keep your torque consistent over time. It’s a design that helps stop the holes from enlarging and keeps the wheel locked firmly on your hub for the long term.

Made to Resist Rust: Aluminum Construction with Clear-Coat Protection

Corrosion can wreck a good wheel fast, especially when it’s exposed to water or road grime. The Phoenix wheel’s aluminum body is completely rustproof and finished with an automotive-grade clear coat on the face. The coating protects against scuffs and scratches while keeping that black finish looking sharp season after season.

Balanced Look and Fit: Zero Offset, 4.9" Pilot Diameter

Getting the stance right matters as much as strength. This wheel runs a true zero offset with a 4.9" pilot diameter for balanced mounting and proper load distribution across the hub. The backspacing measures 3-3/8" on the 6-3/4" width, making it a precise fit where stability and even wear matter most.

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"

@GaryJ Glad we had the right match for you Gary, and you are still pleased a year later! What kind of 5th wheel do you have, and what has been your most favorite trip of all time?


by:

We had a defective Phoenix Trailer Wheel on our 2023 GD Solitude 390RK. Called Sarah at eTrailer and ordered a new one. I asked about a wheel warranty and she gave me the contact info for the manufacturer.
We received the wheel in a few days and it had no damage.
Thank you for the amazing help and ensuring that we had the correct wheel!

  • Higher Weight Rated Trailer Wheel and Tire that Fits 2017 Grand Design Momentum 349M
    Hey Jason, I did some checking and it looks like your 2017 Grand Design Momentum 349M does have the same bolt pattern as the Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel part # LH88VR so it would work for you. We do have a J rated tire that fits this with the part # P35175 which has a 6,005 lb capacity per tire.

  • Looking for Replacement Wheel for 24 ft Brinkely Z Series
    Hey Terry, to answer your question I would need a bit more info from you as we don't have access to the wheel sizes of your Brinkley. Unlike vehicles they don't have everything organized and easy to access for replacement parts. So if you can get me the wheel bolt pattern you have and the size of the tire that is on the sidewall I can see if the part # LH88VR is correct. If you count 8 lug nuts and the tire size ends with 17.5 this would be correct fit though.

  • Will Lionshead 17-1/2" Wheel LH88VR Work With 1/2" Lug Bolt?
    Hello Ryan, thanks for reaching out. No, the # LH88VR wheel will not work with 1/2" wheel studs. It should only be used with 9/16" studs. 1/2" studs would leave open space in the lug hole and this would eventually eat up and destroy your wheel studs. If you studs are 1/2" you will want to stick with a wheel made for 1/2" studs. Any trailer that uses a 17-1/2" 8-lug wheel should absolutely be equipped with 9/16" studs. What trailer is this going on? What size tires and wheels do you...

  • Replacement OEM Wheel for 2023 Grand Design Solitude 378MBS
    Hey Robert! Grand Design has a parts lookup website that allowed me to confirm that the Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel # LH88VR is the exact same look and specifications as the factory wheel from your 2023 Grand Design Solitude 378MBS, so I'm confident that you won't have any issues with this wheel. Did something happen to your old wheel or are you just looking to have a matching spare?

  • Looking for Replacement Grand Design Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel
    Hey Megan, I think we can still help but the # TA95ZR is a hub piloted wheel and it's pilot diameter does not match what you have now so it would not work for you. Instead we have the exact replacement wheel to what you sent in a picture of and described with the Lionshead part # LH88VR. Did your wheel get damaged and you need a replacement or are you looking for a spare?

  • Availability of Lionshead Aluminum Tiger Wheels
    Hi Jim; I'm sorry to say the Lionshead Tiger was discontinued. Lionshead has a bad habit of discontinuing wheels that were heavily used as OEM wheels on trailers, even when they're newer trailers. The only thing I can offer is a different style like the Phoenix # LH88VR you were looking at. If you have a single damaged wheel it may be worth checking with an RV scrap yard to see if they have any before switching to a different wheel.

  • What is Valve Stem Hole Size of Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel # LH88VR
    Hey Charles, the hole for the valve stem on the Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel # LH88VR is 0.625". This is going to be the case for any wheel that is over 15". 8"-15" wheels use the 0.453" holes and wheels over 15" use the 0.625" holes. I am not sure if you are open to a different TPMS system that is compatible but we have the Tuson Towable Tire Pressure Monitoring System # 335TPMS4WIVS which works with both the 0.453" or 0.625" diameter valve stem holes.

  • What is the Offset and Backspacing of the 17-1/2" Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel?
    Hey Gary, thanks for the information. The Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel item # LH88VR has zero offset. The backspacing on a 6-3/4" wide rim with zero offset is 3-3/8". We do not have a steel wheel in that 17-1/2" size without offset. I highly recommend picking the item # LH88VR wheel up and using it as a spare if it matches your current wheels. The Lionshead wheel styles are extremely hard to source replacements for. If you damage one down the road you won't have to hunt down a replacement...

  • Part Number for the 17-1/2" Lionshead Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel
    Hey John, thanks for reaching out! For just the wheel out of the Cooper Work Series 215/75R17.5 Radial Tire w/ 17-1/2" Wheel # LH28FR you're looking at the Lionshead Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel # LH88VR. Are you needing to replace some wheels, or do you just prefer this style and want to use it with your current tires?

  • Replacement 17-1/2" wheel with an 8 Lug Bolt Pattern for a 2015 Grand Momentum 5th Wheel
    Hey Danny, thanks for reaching out! We do have a handful of 17-1/2" wheels that use an 8 lug bolt pattern. A common one would be the Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel # LH88VR, but there are a couple of different designs so you'll want to filter through the linked selection if this doesn't look like it will work out for you.

  • What Type of Lug Nut Does Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel Use
    Hi Daniel; Lionshead wheels like the Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel # LH88VR use your typical acorn style lug nut with a standard 60 degree cone like the # LHLR103. I'm sure this is the same as the tapered lug nuts you're referring to.

  • Availability of Lionshead Black Bearcat Wheel
    Hello Mario; I'm sorry to say that the Bearcat wheel has been discontinued and is no longer around. Unfortunately, this isn't uncommon for Lionshead and a major pain point when anyone needs a matching replacement. The closest thing we have is the Phoenix # LH88VR, although close is a stretch. If you end up replacing all of the wheels so they match I recommend getting a wheel that isn't from Lionshead like the Aluminum Trinity Series Trailer Wheel # TA84XR so you don't run into this problem...

  • Replacement 17-1/2" Trailer Wheel for a 2020 Vanleigh Vilano 385RD 5th Wheel
    Hey Jim, thanks for reaching out! We have some 17-1/2" trailer wheels, like the Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel # LH88VR, but you would need to match it up with your bolt pattern and wheel style. We don't carry the Sumec brand, but if everything matches up then using a different brand wheel is still okay. I'm attaching a link to our selection of 17-1/2" trailer wheels for you to filter through. If you'd like my opinion on what best matches what you already have, I'll need a photo of your...

  • What Is The Max PSI Rating For The Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel LH88VR?
    Great question, Matt. The Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel # LH88VR itself does not actually have a specific PSI rating. The max PSI rating is determined by the valve stem and/or tire. The # LH88VR comes with a metal valve stem that is rated up to 200 PSI, so it will be sufficient for any 17-1/2" tire. For example the Westlake 215/75R17.5 Radial Trailer Tire # LHWL097 has a 4,805-lb max load at 123 psi.

  • Could Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel Fit 2023 Forest River Riverstone Reserves
    Hey Stephen, it is possible that the part # LH88VR is the correct replacement wheel for you Forest River but I don't have a way to look that up. If this looks just like what you have, and your tire is a 17-1/2 inch wheel size then yes it would work for you.

  • Looking for 17-1/2 inch Diameter Wheel with 8 Lug Bolt Pattern 9/16" Stud Size
    Hey William, I wish we could help but we don't have a version of that wheel that has the correct wheel stud size that you need. We don't have a whole lot of options that would match what you need but we do have the part # LH88VR which does match the wheel stud size you need of 9/16 inch and is also 17-1/2 inch with an 8 on 6-1/2 inch bolt pattern.

  • Is The 17-1/2" Phoenix Aluminum Trailer Wheel Sold Separately
    Hi John, We can get you the Phoenix wheel only from the Cooper Work Series 215/75R17.5 Radial Tire w/ 17-1/2" Wheel # LH28FR. THe correct part for the wheel by itself is the following: - Aluminum Phoenix Trailer Wheel - Black # LH88VR The # LH88VR has the 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern you need, and is the same 17-1/2" x 6-3/4" size you specified.

  • 16” Lionshead Phoenix Wheel Availability and Closest Match Options
    Hey Aaron, I totally understand wanting a matching spare, especially if you’re trying to keep everything looking consistent and avoid any fitment surprises. At this time, we don’t carry the Lionshead Phoenix wheel in a 16x6" size with the 6 on 5.5 bolt pattern like the OEM you’re describing. I also did some digging on that specific configuration and wasn’t able to confirm an available 16" Phoenix option right now, so it may be something that’s limited or no longer in production in that...
