Durable Acrylic Enamel Finish

Maxion Wheels Vesper Acrylic Enamel Finish

This wheel has a durable acrylic enamel finish on the front. The finish is applied after the wheel goes through an environmentally safe zinc phosphate pre-treatment and is coated with an e-coat primer layer. Compared to powder coat finishes, this finish resists getting chipped from flying road debris or scraped from hitting a curb for a longer period of time. These acrylic enamel wheels performed for more than 1,000 hours in salt spray tests.


Beveled Stud Holes

The stud holes on this steel wheel are beveled to ensure that the wheel stays tight against your trailer hub. This also eliminates the need to constantly retorque the lug nuts.


Determining the Bolt Pattern

The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.


Bolt Pattern - Odd

To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: "5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)


Bolt Pattern - Even

On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: "8 on 6-1/2" means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)


Bolt Pattern - Side

Measuring the distance from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

  • If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
  • If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
  • If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
  • If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

See what our Experts say about this Taskmaster Trailer Tires and Wheels

  • 16 inch Trailer Wheel that Can Handle Weight and PSI Capacity of Load Range G Tire
    Yes, we have 16 inch by 6 inch trailer wheels that have weight and psi capacity for a Load Range G trailer tire like the part # TTWPRG235R16 which is rated for 110 psi and 4,400 lbs.. This has the same 4,400 lb weight capacity and can easily handle 110 psi as well. We don't typically list the psi rating for the wheels as normally it's just the valve stem that limits the psi as the wheels are normally capable of much more than needed.

  • ST235/85R16 Tire Mounted on a Silver Mod Wheel
    We have a wheel and tire to make up what you're looking for but we don't have it in a combo that is already mounted on a wheel. Instead you need: Westlake 235/85-16 Load Range G tire part # LHWL410 Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel part # TA73VR It's the same tire but a different wheel. This wheel causes a small drop in your capacity because it's only rated for 3,500 pounds where the 8 lug wheel is rated at 3,750 pounds.

  • Steel 16" Trailer Wheels With 6 on 5-1/2" Bolt Pattern
    Here is a list of our 16" steel trailer wheels which have the 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern. We will not have any wheels which have the 95.4mm pilot hole you are needing which should not likely be an issue since trailers will typically use a coned Lug Nut # CE11051 which lug centers the wheel rather than hub centering the wheel like several vehicles will require. If your trailer hub is hub centric and uses a Flange Nut # LI84FR you will need to have an centric ring adapter made to fit the wheels....

  • High Air Pressure Capacity 16 inch Aluminum Trailer Wheel Recommendation
    The Aluminum HWT Series S5 Trailer Wheel # AM22658HWTB that you referenced should do well for you. I spoke to my contact at HWT and they informed me that the PSI rating for their wheels like the part # AM22658HWTB is limited by the valve stem and tire that is used in the wheel. This rim has the correct bolt pattern and width that you listed as well to match # TA73VR. We don't carry a valve stem for this rim that would have a high enough air pressure capacity but you should be able to...

  • Backspacing and Offset of 16 Inch Diameter Wheels with 6 on 5-1/2 Inch Bolt Pattern
    No, we offer 16" diameter wheels with a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern in different offsets/backspacings. If the wheel has an offset then it will be listed in the title or on the product page. I have attached a list of these options for you. If you need a wheel with a negative offset then I recommend part # AM22657 which has an -8mm offset which means the backspacing will be around 3.3". If you need a wheel with a 0 offset then I recommend part # TA73VR which has a 3.5" backspacing. In order...

  • Recommended 235/85R16 Tires on 5th Wheel Trailer with Weight Capacity Rated Above Tire/Axle Capacity
    Your Pilgrim International Open Road 357RLDS definitely has tires needing replaced. It is not uncommon to use LT tires on trailers, but it sounds like they have some dry rot going on. The stamp on the wheel rim unfortunately is not anything I'm familiar with so I can't help with that, but I can tell you that most trailers use a zero offset meaning that the mounting surface of the wheel to the hub is in the direct middle of the tire. The triangular or circular cutouts in the wheel are...

  • Difference Between Conventional and Modular Trailer Wheels
    A example of a conventional steel trailer wheel is Dexstar # AM20766. Modular wheels are simply trailer wheels that feature cosmetically-appealing holes rather than spokes or a solid inner surface. A good example of a modular trailer wheel would be the Taskmaster Steel # TA73VR.

  • What Rim Widths Compatible with Taskmaster ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire TTWTRTM2358016E
    Yes, the load range E Taskmaster ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire # TTWTRTM2358016E will fit a 16x6-inch-wide rim such as # TA73VR. This tire also fits wider 16-inch rims: 6-1/2-inch, 7-inch and 7-1/2-inch. When mounted and fully inflated the overall diameter of this tire will be just under 31-inches. The Taskmaster ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire # TTWTRTM2358016E provides a load capacity of 3520-lbs at 80-psi. It also carries an M speed rating, which means a maximum speed of 81-mph. Trailer...

  • 16 Inch Wheels for 235/85-16 Tires on a 2000 Keystone Montana 3270 5th Wheel Trailer
    Trailer tire size ST235/85-16 will fit on 16 inch wheels that are 6 to 7-1/2 inches wide. For trailer tires the narrower the wheel the better in terms of capacity and longevity. The tire you mentioned seems to be a load Range E which means it is rated for 3,640 pounds at the maximum psi indicated on the tire sidewall. The problem with this is wheel # AM22657 is rated for a max of 3,200 pounds. A similar wheel that is silver steel, # TA73VR, is rated for 3,500 pounds. Aluminum wheel #...

  • Recommended Replacement Wheels and Tires For a 2001 Kieferbilt Horse Trailer With 5,200LB Axles
    The Dexstar # AM20746 is going to have a silver powder coat finish while the Vesper # TA73VR has a more durable acrylic enamel finish which is resists damage better than powder coat. For the tires I recommend sticking with a quality ST235/80R16 load range E tire like the Karrier # AM10248. Going up to a 14-ply like the Westlake # WE76FR will cause the tire to bounce more than deflect which transfers more shock into the trailer causing a worse ride for your horses and equipment.

  • What is Standard 6 Bolt Wheel Pattern for 16 inch Trailer Wheel
    6 on 6 inch is not a standard trailer bolt pattern so we won't be able to get that for you. The closest would be a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern 16 inch wheel like the part # TA73VR. If this is a trailer application most likely this is the bolt pattern you need. I attached a help article on determining bolt patterns for you to check out as well.

  • Weight Comparison Between Aluminum And Steel 15 Inch Trailer Wheels
    I pulled 3 different wheels from our warehouse and weighed them on our scale for you. The Aluminum HWT Mod Trailer Wheel, part # AM22646 weighs 15.8 lbs. This has a pilot hole that measures 4.25 inches. I pulled a couple steel wheels as well. The Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel, part # TA73VR weighs 16.2 lbs. This also has a pilot hole that measures 4.25 inches. The Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel, part # AM20532 weighs 17.15 lbs. This wheel has a pilot hole that measures 4.27...

  • Trailer Hub/Rotor Kit that has 6 on 5-1/2 inch Bolt Pattern
    A 6 on 139.7 mm bolt pattern is the same as a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern which is the same as what the Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel # TA73VR that you referenced has. I don't know what capacity axle you have, but the Kodiak kit part # K2HR526DKG is for 5,200 to 6,000 lb axles and has the 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern. This also has a corrosion resistant coating which helps in boat trailer scenarios since they will be in and out of water a lot. The bearing numbers this takes...

  • Does Tire Pressure Matter to Wheels in the Same Manner as Tires?
    The tire pressure isn't a factor with wheels (but valve stems are pressure rated so your existing ones may need to be switched if they're not rated for your new tires); for this reason it's not going to be a concern as much as the load rating/weight capacity of the tires and wheels being consistent; this is simply from a standpoint of making sure that you're maximizing your carrying capacity, which is usually the purpose of upgrading. When towing, you're always rated by your lowest rated...

  • PSI Rating and Offset for the Taskmaster Rim part # TA73VR

  • Does the Center Hole Matter on a Trailer Wheel and can 16 Inch Wheels be Replaced with 15 Inch
    First, the center (pilot) hole on Taskmaster wheel # TA73VR is 4-1/4 inches. This will only matter if A) the wheels secure to the hubs with wheel bolts rather than lug nuts or B) if the pilot hole is too small. It can be larger just not smaller if it attaches with lug nuts. You can go to a smaller tire and wheel size provided the combined capacity of all of the tires is high enough for the gross trailer weight. I have included some helpful links on tires and wheels for you.

  • Availability Of Tamarack ST235/80R16 Trailer Tire With a 6 on 5-1/2" Lug Wheel?
    You can mount the Tamarack ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire # LHCK401 on any of our available 6 lug wheels for your spare tire as we do not have any tire combos with the Castle Rock in a 6 lug. Here are a few steel 6 lug wheels that are the correct size for this tire. Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 - Silver # TA73VR Dexstar Conventional Steel Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 - Black Powder Coat # AM20758 Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6"...

  • Max PSI Of Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel
    The Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 - Silver # TA73VR does not have a specified max psi. The max psi is based on the valve stem, so it is most likely an 85 psi stem that comes with the wheel. If you need a higher psi to run your tires at the max psi as they should be, I recommend using the Americana Metal, Bolt-In Valve Stem - 1-1/4" Long - Over 100 psi # AM20906.

  • Is Wheel Balanced Before Shipping Or Only Wheel Tire Combinations?
    While we aren't able to balance our tires and wheels (we don't have the proper equipment in house to do so), this isn't typically necessary with trailer tires. Trailer tires and wheels are made different and operate differently. Unlike with passenger vehicle, trailer tires are made to support heavy weights and ride comfort isn't a vital attribute. So to answer part of your question, the Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 - Silver # TA73VR are not balanced...

  • Backspacing for Taskmaster Steel Mod Trailer Wheel 16 x 6 Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 - Silver
    Since Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 - Silver Item # TA73VR has a zero offset the backspacing is half the overall width of the wheel. The overall width of the wheel is approximately 7 inches making the backspacing approximately 3-1/2 inches. If you need a certain amount of space let me know and I can see if we have a match.

  • Recommended 16x6 Rim With A 6 On 5-1/2 Bolt Pattern For Use As A Spare
    If you are looking for a good quality 16x6 rim with a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern, check out the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20746. This American made wheel is a 16x6 rim and includes the 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern. It is also rated up to 3,520 pounds of capacity and the silver powder coat finish over the e-coat primer will do well with corrosion resistance. The price point really can't be beat either. This will be a fantastic spare.

  • Recommended Center Cap For A 16" Taskmaster Wheel
    We do indeed have caps for your 16" Taskmaster wheel. From what I could find, their steel wheels, like the # TA73VR, will have a 4.25" pilot hole, so you will want to check out the Americana Trailer Wheel Center Cap # AM90077. This is stainless steel cap, but does have a black plastic plug on the end for access to an EZ-Lube type spindle. If you want something that is all silver, then the Lionshead Trailer Wheel Center Cap # LHCS108-SI60C will be the one you want. This is also stainless...
