Features to know about

Built for Heavy Loads and Hard Use: 4,460-lb Capacity, 16" x 6" Steel Wheel

This sturdy steel wheel is made to handle serious weight. With a 4,460-lb maximum load rating and a 16" x 6" rim, it’s built for heavy-duty use where strength and stability matter. The 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern and 4.88" pilot diameter give you a solid fit with common hardware sizes of 1/2"-20 or 9/16"-18 bolts. It’s designed with a modular layout that adds strength where it counts while staying balanced for smooth towing.

Stays Tight Run After Run: Improved Torque Retention Technology

Constant retightening is a hassle you don’t need. This wheel’s improved torque retention design uses beveled, uncoated stud holes and a raised center disc to create better clamp force on the hub. That means the wheel stays secure after long trips or repeated use, giving you peace of mind every time you hit the road.

Resists Chips, Scratches, and Rust: Durable White Acrylic Enamel Finish

The finish on this wheel goes beyond basic powder coat. A zinc phosphate pre-treatment and e-coat primer form the base, followed by a white acrylic enamel layer that resists chipping and scraping from road debris or curbs better than standard coatings. It delivers excellent corrosion protection with more than 1,000 hours of salt spray performance, so it keeps looking clean even in tough weather or humid conditions.

Built for Real-World Conditions: Meets SAE J1204 Standards

You can count on this wheel to meet recognized standards for trailer performance. It’s tested and built to SAE J1204 requirements, with quality details like a precisely machined 0 offset and an included valve stem for ready setup. That combination of durability, fit, and corrosion resistance makes it a dependable upgrade for demanding towing needs.

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"

I ordered a 16" rim on 5/13/22 that was supposed to be available, and it took
11 days to ship. I received it in 5/26 and it was the wrong rim. So far its not been a good experience.

Great Deal! Really quick delivery! Will be using etrailer from now on. These people are on it! You will not regret using this company.



by:

Overall, disappointed. Was priced right and shipped fast. But the paint is all chipped on the front edge of the rim and the back side isn't even painted. This is going to be a spare,but I don't need it to rust on day 2. On a positive it did come with a steel stem already installed.

I can see where receiving the chipped wheel would be disappointing. Customer Service will be in touch with you about it. The wheel is coated with an e-coat primer before being painted on the front side. The back side is not painted as it helps to offer better force retention.



by:

Vesper steel modular, looks like a good quality wheel. I like my purchase and will purchase again.



by:

The wheel came as stated. The paint looks decent but there is overspray on the backside. Not a big deal for a work trailer, but could be a turn off for someone with a fancier car hauler.



by:

Fast Shipping!!! Great Service!!! Great Product!!!



by:

Excellent trailer wheel. No issues and balance well. Quality paint is holding up well. No issues after one year of rough service. Will definitely be buying more!



by:

This product has been great! Way stronger than the original rims on our dump trailer which we use to haul gravel, topsoil and our loader. Highly recommend using these wheels.

  • How To Measure A Offset On A 2005 Exiss 4 Horse Trailer
    When measuring the offset of a tire you need to measure from where the wheel mounts to the hub to the inside bead and outside bead, with the difference being the offset. The Vesper Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 16 inch x 6 inch Rim - 8 on 6-1/2 - White # MX27FR has no offset. The Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheel w/ +0.5" Offset - 16 inch x 6 inch Rim - 8 on 6-1/2 - Black # AM20766 has a +0.5 offset. I attached a review video link below.

    The 16" steel trailer wheels we offer are 6" wide (measured from where the tire beads will seat on the wheel, from inside of the inner wheel flange to inside of the outer wheel flange), and have an 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern.

  • What Rims do I Need to Replace Dexstar 17-293 Rims?
    From my available research, the Dexstar model 17-293 measures 16" x 6" and has a 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern.
