Features to know about

Built for Heavy Loads Without the Wobble: 2,830-lb Capacity and Improved Torque Retention

This steel modular wheel is made to hold steady under serious weight. Rated at 2,830 lbs with a zero offset that centers the load, it keeps balance across the axle for a solid, confident tow. The Improved Torque Retention (ITR) technology uses beveled, uncoated stud holes and an automotive-rated center disc to help the wheel stay tight against the hub without constant retightening.

Corrosion Resistance That Lasts: Silver Acrylic Enamel Finish Over E-Coat Primer

This 15" x 6" steel wheel uses a silver acrylic enamel finish that outperforms powder coat when it comes to resisting chips and scrapes. The finish is layered over an e-coat primer after a zinc phosphate pre-treatment, delivering more than 1,000 hours of salt spray protection. It’s a tough combination built to stand up to road debris and harsh weather.

Straightforward Fitment and Reliable Construction: 5 on 5 Bolt Pattern with 3.31" Pilot Diameter

Fitment is clear and simple with a 5 on 5" bolt pattern and a 3.31" pilot diameter. The wheel takes 1/2"-20 bolts and includes a valve stem rated up to 80 psi. Every detail meets SAE J1204 standards, so you know it’s built right from the start.

Balanced Design for Everyday Use: Sturdy Modular Steel Build

The modular design gives this Vesper wheel both strength and even load distribution across its structure. The clean silver look pairs with that durability for a setup that performs as good as it looks, whether you’re towing short distances or heading out on longer runs.

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"

The wheels still look good a year later with no signs of rust or other issues.



by:

This wheel has a greater load capacity than others I looked at. Nice powder coat finish. These wheels will be used on a 16' trailer. The originals had load range C tires and after a blow out carrying a tractor I upgraded to load range E which required these wider wheels.



by:

Have a new 7K car hauler/equipment trailer with ST205/75R15 Load Range C 6 ply tires on 15x5 silver modular rims rated at 1800 pounds. Wanted to do a tire and or wheel upgrade. Knew I could stay with a 205 tire and upgrade the Load Range rating, but fortunately I have plenty of extra width & height in the wheel wells. So I upgraded to ST225/75R15 Load Range E 10 ply tires, and etrailer had the exact rim for this upgrade. A 15x6 silver modular with a rating of roughly 2800 pounds well more than I will ever need. I was very happy with the online ordering process and shipping time. Packaging was superb and the rims looked great. During this process I learned about lug patterns on etrailer’s website great need to know information when ordering. With help from etrailer I know have solid piece of mind now in my rims & tires towing on the interstate in 100 degree heat. I will definitely look to etrailer again for any trailer needs.
Thank you!

A GREAT product -- an exact replacement. The original valve has lasted for many years and am replacing all three Waste Valves. However, I have't install it, or the other one that arrive Saturday, but will this week. I did install the first valve which was operated via cable system two weeks ago. It works perfectly. I very much appreciated the friendly and knowledgeable assistance from all etrailer's employees. Very helpful and very knowledgeable. BTW, products well packaged -- no damage ...product arrive on schedule.



by:

Great product at great price. I will definitely purchase additional items from eTrailer. Great service, and a very good buying experience. Highly recommended.
This is one great looking product on the ground. The place that I had the tire mounted ask the price of the wheels, and when I told them they shook their heads and said they would have to start using eTrailer, because they could not even buy a quality product like this for the price that I had paid.
Thanks once again



by:

I bought these to replace the 5" white, spoked rims on my new car trailer. Can't beat the price and were at my door in two days. They are 1" wider and a much better wheel than the stock ones. I'd rather have aluminum but these look real good for a lot less than aluminum.

Still looking good and working fine.



by:

Wheel was exactly as described, fit perfectly. Finish was nice, a good quality replacement wheel.



by:

Well built rim. It is made of heavy duty material. Glad I purchased from etrailer.com. I have a trailer with a 3,500 pound weight capacity. This rim is just what I need for my spare. Nothing worse than having a flat and no spare.

Well it’s been a year already. Best way to not need a spare is to buy one. Haven’t needed it yet but enjoy the confidence gained from having it if I need it. Tire and wheel package looks good and holding air well.



by:

I received the Trailer Rims ahead of the scheduled delivery date and I’m delighted with the construction and build of the Vesper Rims, best part is that they match the rare 5 on 5 Lug pattern to my Trailer Axle, thumbs way up

Working out just fine Just recently got my homemade trailer completed and registered, contrast between the Silver Gray Trailer rims and a freshly painted black trailer makes it pop and look nice ??



by:

I’m going to say excellent for now. I had previously bought a set just like these that were silver powdercoat. That finish fell right off and they immediately started to rust. Not good. So I tried the painted ones this time. I’ll let you know a year from now.



by:

Excellent trailer wheels at affordable price. Paint & finish are flawless. Highly recommended retailer.com for all your trailer needs.



by:

Yes sir yes sir. Quality product, prompt shipping.Thank you!



by:

Awesome product



by:

Great fit, I'm ordering 2 more.



by:

This is a tremendous wheel! The 6" wide wheel is rated at 2835 lbs. Remember your rig is only as good as its weakest link, so a pair of these would be good for 5670 lbs. Overkill on a 3500lbs axle? Maybe, but definitely gives peace of mind, and the price is comparable. They even ship with the high pressure metal stems installed. The offset is neutral, so the difference from a 5" is only a half inch back spacing increase. Be sure to check your clearances from hub face to frame, but my Dexter 95" axle has plenty of clearance from the 80" frame. eTrailer has been the best vendor, period! I originally needed these wheels in April 2016 to replace the truck wheels I had, but the 5-on-5" wheels were not a carried item. Within days the team added them to their product line and had them shipped.
These newer Vesper wheels are even better than the originals from 2016. Thanks eTrailer team for another great experience!

  • Recommended 15 inch, 5 on 5, Mod wheel with 1/2 inch offset
    Hey Wayne, appreciate you reaching out! We do have 15" modular wheels available with a 5 on 5 bolt pattern like Taskmaster Vesper Steel Modular Trailer Rim # 560550SM1, but the tricky part is the 1/2" offset. All of the trailer-style modular wheels we carry are in a 15" x 5" or 15" x 6" size are built with a 0 offset. When you mention the wheel sits “1/2 inch out from the hub,” that sounds like you may have a positive offset wheel. What do you usually haul; trailer, toy hauler, cargo?

  • Does Vesper Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 15" x 6" Rim - 5 on 5 Come With a Chrome Finish
    Thanks for reaching out, Larry! Taskmaster doesn't offer the Vesper Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 15" x 6" Rim - 5 on 5 - Silver # 560550SM1 in a chrome finish so the silver color will be your best bet. I took a look at our other wheels with these same specs and none of them come with the chrome finish so I recommend picking up the silver.

  • Back Spacing of Taskmaster 15 x 5-Inch Steel Modular Trailer Wheel 560550SM1
    The backspacing of Taskmaster 15 x 5-Inch Steel Modular Trailer Wheel # 560550SM1 is 3-1/2-inches. I went to our warehouse and took this measurement for you. Do note that the 3-1/2-inches is the wheel's backspacing. Once you mount a tire on the wheel there will be a change to the actual clearance between the tire and trailer frame. A 15 x 5 wheel like this can take either a 205/75-15 trailer tire or a 225/75-15 tire. The wider 225 size will have less actual clearance between the inside...

While your current wheels both have a 3.5" diameter pilot you may be able to fit the smaller size since wheels this size are typically lug centric and not hub centric.
