Features to know about

Built for Reliable Strength on the Road: 2,160-lb Capacity with Improved Torque Retention

This 15" x 5" steel wheel is rated for 2,160 lbs and uses Improved Torque Retention (ITR) technology to keep it secure once mounted. The raised center disc and beveled stud holes hold clamp force better, so the wheel stays tight against the hub without needing frequent retightening. It’s an automotive-rated design made to stay solid mile after mile.

Lasting Protection Against Corrosion: Silver Acrylic Enamel Finish

The silver acrylic enamel finish stands up to road debris, curbs, and salt spray better than traditional powder coats. It’s applied over a zinc phosphate pre-treatment and e-coat primer layer for deep rust protection. In testing, this finish lasted more than 1,000 hours in salt spray exposure, keeping the wheel looking clean and holding its durability in moisture or harsh conditions.

Straightforward Fitment You Can Count On: 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern, 3.19" Pilot Diameter, 0 Offset

Installing this wheel is simple thanks to its clear specs—5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern, 3.19" pilot diameter, and 0 offset. The uncoated stud holes are designed for better seating with 1/2"-20 bolts, giving a snug and consistent fit that inspires confidence.

Ready for Common Tire Sizes: Works with 7.00-15 and ST205 Series Tires

The wheel’s 5" width fits popular tire sizes such as 7.00-15 and ST205 series tires when verified by the tire manufacturer. Its included valve stem can handle high pressure, making this a ready match for dependable tire setups that need real working strength and secure air retention.

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"
