Silver powder-coated, 17-1/2" x 6-3/4" hub-piloted steel trailer wheel features an 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern and a 4.76" pilot diameter. 5.59" Offset allows wheel to be used as either the inner or outer wheel of a dual-wheel setup.

Built-In Offset for Dual Applications
This wheel is designed to be used in dual-wheel setups. The 5.59" offset allows the wheel to be positioned closer to the trailer frame when used as the inner wheel of the setup. And if you use this wheel in the outer position, the offset ensures that it will sit closer to the outside of your trailer. This hub-piloted wheel centers on the hub, not the lugs, and it requires the use of flange nuts (sold separately) for installation.
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.

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at this Americana Silver Dual Wheel with Offset. Now, this heavy-duty steel wheel with the capacity of 6,200 pounds has two hand holes, and this is designed to be used in a dual wheel setup. The 5.59-inch offset is going to allow the wheel to be positioned closer to the trailer frame when used as an inner wheel of the setup. And this is gonna be the orientation for the inner wheel. And then if you use this, use this wheel in the outer position in this orientation here, that offset is going to ensure that it will sit closer to the outside of your trailer.
Now, this steel wheel is sturdy and corrosion-resistant. It does feature a silver powder coat finish over an e-coat primer. This is a hub-piloted wheel, which means it will center on the hub of your axle, not on the lugs. The pilot hole diameter is 4.76 inches. This does require the use of flange nuts for installation, and we do sell them separately here at etrailer.com.
This does use the wheel lug size of 5/8 of an inch by 18 flange nut, and you can find them on the Related Products section on the lower portion of this product page. Now, this wheel does meet the Department of Transportation specifications. The diameter of this wheel is 17 1/2 inches, the width is 6 3/4 inches, and the bolt pattern is eight on 6 1/2 inches. And the first number on the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes, obviously, but that second number is the diameter in inches of the circle on which these bolt holes sit. So, to determine the bolt circle diameter on wheels with an even number of bolt holes as we have here, you're simply going to measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it.
Well, that's gonna wrap up our real quick look today. I do hope that our time together was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
