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.
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.)
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.)
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"

Video Transcript for Dexstar Tires and Wheels - Wheel Only - AM20545 Review
Today we're going to review part number AM20545, this is the Dexstar 15" by 6" Black Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel with the 5 on 4 1/2" bolt pattern. This steel wheel has the modular design, or the mini mod design, and by that they mean it has the round holes all the way around. It's very sturdy, very corrosion resistant. Does use a two step finishing process on the wheel, what they basically do is first put an eco-primer down and then a black powder coat finish over the front and even the back of the wheel. This wheel does meet the Department of Transportation standards, it is made in the USA. On the specs on this wheel, the rim dimensions, the diameter is 15" and it's measured inside the inside and the width is also 6" wide, inside to inside.
When you go to measure this, you're going to be measuring when a tire is seated on here, the beads of the tire seat right in here, so that's what you'll be measuring. When we do the diameter it's going to be inside to inside, so if I take a tape measure here and if we put it on that diameter, you'll be able to see it's right at 15" diameter, the width again, is going to be inside to inside, so if we put a tape measure on that, right at 6", so 15" by 6". The bolt pattern on this wheel, it's a 5 lug 4 1/2" bolt pattern and on a wheel that uses an odd number of lugs, in this case five, the way to measure the bolt pattern is you just pick one of the holes, and then measure directly across to either hole right across from it. You can measure from this hole to this one, or this to this. The trick is to get the correct measurement, you need to measure from the starting hole center, to the outer edge of the hole that you got to. If we go from this hole to this hole, try to show you, we'll go center to outer edge, and see it's right at 4 1/2", so 5 on 4 1/2" bolt pattern.
It does use a wheel lug size of 1/2" by 20. This does have a weight capacity of 2,150 pounds and the pilot hole diameter, which is the large hole here in the center of the wheel, this goes over the hub on your trailer, diameter of that opening is going to be right at 3.19". That should do it for the review on part number AM20545, this is the Dexstar 15" by 6" Black Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel with the 5 on 4 1/2" bolt pattern.

Exactly what I needed.. an upgrade 5 on 4.5 patter rim, with larger load capacity and ability to mount larger tires included XL load, and LT type tires on a 15" rim. Prompt shipping and delivery as usual. 208900
Comments
Rims are perfect. Use these to replace 14 rims on your 3500 axles so you can upgrade to better tires.. it is worth it. Very few good tires with enough load capacity for the 14 rims.

Etrailer came through in my search for rims! I raised my flat deck ATV trailer from 13" to 15" tires and searched for basic rims. Etrailer was the only affordable rims I could find. I had to finagle shipping to Alaska to cut costs. I'm not adding pictures as they are just basic black rims, but I couldn't be more pleased. Having 15" wheels & tires over those 13" wheels is a relief! 277690
Comments
Ive been very pleased with the purchase. While these were the basic black rim that went on a flatbed utility trailer, the ability to move from a 13 tire to 15 tire was why I needed. No more undependable small tires! Thank you!

I purchased a new left over Travel Trailer and decided to upgrade the wheel size so I could increase the load range on the tires. I ordered the Dexter 15" wheels in black and also chrome center caps with black plastic end caps. I was most impressed with etrailer's shipping and customer service. For that main reason they've earned my buisness in the future. The wheels were nice and well worth the price. They DID NOT come with valve stems which I thought they did,but I was still very happy with my products. 366786

I really like these wheels, the finish is well applied, no blems or voids, and the powdercoat looks clean. I am happy that these wheels are made in the USA, and that they have a higher weight rating than wheels of similar size from other manufacturers. All in all I am quite pleased and the wheels and the excellent service from etrailer which was spectacular, as usual! 254383

Ask the Experts about this Dexstar Tires and Wheels
Do you have a question about this Tires and Wheel?
- 80 PSI Valve Stem Recommendation for Dexstar Mini Mod Wheel AM20545
- I went and pulled a Dexstar Wheel part # AM20545 from our warehouse to measure the diameter of the valve stem hole and found it to be .453 of an inch in diameter.
For an 80 psi valve stem to fit this you would want part # AM20904. The psi limiting factor of a wheel setup is almost always going to be the valve stem.
view full answer... - Tire/Wheel Combination Recommendation For Utility Trailer
- When the # TTWTRTM2057515C tire and # AM20545 wheel are ordered, the tire is not mounted on the wheel. You can have a local garage or tire shop mount it for you.
If you are looking for a tire/wheel combo that would be very similar to the wheel and tire you mentioned I recommend the Kenda Karrier combo, part # AM32238B. This is a Load Range C radial tire on a 15 inch Black mod wheel and it has a 5 on 4-1/2 wheel bolt pattern.

- We do indeed have a center cap that will fit your # AM20545 Dexstar Mini Mod wheel. I'd recommend the # AM90175 cap from Americana that features a stainless finish and a removable plug to access the zerk fitting if you have EZ Lube spindles. If you prefer stainless cap with a silver covered plug Lionshead offers part # LHCS102-SI60C. For a chrome finish, go with the # 319EZ from Excalibur. Despite what the photo shows, this center cap features a bright shiny finish.
Any of these caps...
view full answer... - Does Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20545 Have Any Offset
- Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20545 does not have any offset. I confirmed this with Dextsar. Also if a wheel does have offset we will indicate this in the item's specs.
This Dexstar wheel is a 15 x 6-inch size with a 5-on-4-1/2-inch bolt pattern. It features a 2150-lb capacity, fits 1/2-inch diameter wheel bolts and can accept tire sizes 205/75-15 and 225/75-15. This wheel is USA-made and meets all DOT standards.
view full answer... - Will the Dexstar Rim part # AM20545 Fit a 215/75/15 Tire
- A tire with the size 215/75/15 would fit on the Dexstar Rim part # AM20545 that you referenced. These rims can also handle 65 psi as well. You should note that this rim should only be used on trailers and not trucks.
The max tire pressure the valve stem # AM20904 can handle is 80.
view full answer... - Larger Tire Size to Fit on Lowes 4 by 6 Mesh Trailer
- I looked up the trailer you mentioned and was able to find that it uses 12 inch trailer wheels with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. Based on the width of the tire relative to the rim it looks like a 4.80-12 tire size. The fender clearance looks pretty tight so I doubt you'd be able to go with a much taller setup as-is.
Best option would be a 5.30-12 tire like the # TT53012C which will be 1/2 inch wider and 1.4 inches taller.

view full answer... - Could Tire Size 235/75R15 Fit on a Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20545
- The tire size you listed isn't a standard trailer tire size, but the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20545 that you referenced could have a 235/75R15 mounted to it pretty easily.
You should note that this wheel is designed and rated for use on a trailer. It has a zero offset and has a wheel bolt pattern of 5 on 4-1/2 inches.
view full answer... - Recommended Valve Stem For Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel
- I went and pulled a Dexstar Wheel part # AM20545 from our warehouse to measure the diameter of the valve stem hole and found it to be .453 of an inch in diameter.
For an 80 psi valve stem to fit this you would want part # AM20904. The psi limiting factor of a wheel setup is almost always going to be the valve stem. Check your tires for their maximum PSI rating because you always want to run trailer tires at their max PSI.
view full answer... - Overall Diameter of Trailer Wheel Center Cap 319EZ for 3.19-Inch Trailer Wheel Pilot Holes
- If your trailer wheel pilot hole is 3.19-inches then you can use wheel center cap part # 319EZ or one of the other same-size center caps shown on the linked page. All fit a 3.19-inch pilot hole. The 3-7/16-inch dimension noted on the product page refers to the outside dimension of the flanged part that remains behind the wheel to hold the cap in place. This is why it is larger than the hole diameter.
The next size up is for a 3.33-inch wheel pilot hole diameter. I linked our pages for...
view full answer... - What is the Offset and Backspacing for the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20545
- Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20545 does not have any offset. I confirmed this with Dextsar. It sounds like you are asking about the backspacing which is the distance from the mounting flange to the outside of the rim.
Since this is a 6 inch wide rim the back spacing is 3-1/2 inches. To determine this you take the overall width of the rim and add an additional inch for the lip on the wheel and then divide by 2.
view full answer... - Can Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel be Used on Load Range E Tires Rated for 80 psi
- The Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20545 has a max capacity of 2,150 pounds. Load Range E tires are rated up to 2,830 pounds so you'll be limited by the wheel's capacity.
The psi rating of a wheel is determined by the valve stems. They aren't included with the Dexstar rim so use # AM20904 that are rated up to 80 psi.
I've linked our selection of Load Range E tires that will fit the Dexstar Rim.

- We have center caps that would fit the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel part # AM20545 but none of them are painted black. They are all chrome but could easily be painted black.
For the cap you would want the part # 319EZ.
