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"

The trailer wheel I ordered from etrailer was perfect. I was most impressed with the quick turn on my order, It took less than two days from the time I placed the order till I received It.

Purchased these for spares for our horse trailer. They are heavy! Good strong rims. We are putting these on a 38 ft horse trailer with LQ. Each axel is rated at 7k so these rims were perfect for that.
Comments
I will be using these wheels on my horse trailer as well. My current wheels are gray but Im having trouble finding that color. Does the silver wheel that you ordered have a matte finish as opposed to shiny? I prefer the matte finish. Thanks for your help.

Exact replacement for my horse trailer. Had to buy a spare because BISON furnished a spare but it was 6 lug and not 8 lug. By the time I needed a spare it was out of warranty. Not a good time to find out it does not fit with horses in trailer and on side of the road. Word of advice to anyone! Something else to check before leaving the lot with a new trailer. Fast ship! Thanks etrailer!

Perfect!

I purchased these rims because they're made in the USA. They're well made and are heavier due to increased load capacity. Rims were true and had very little run out, unlike the chinese made rims that came originally on my trailer. I would purchase these rims again.

The rims where they are welded could have a better finish where the o.d of the rim meets, and the welding on the back side still had pieces of mig wire sticking out to get your hand stick with the wire. I had four new rims already that I could not use because of the positive offset. They were made in china and had a finshed better finish, and I hate to say that. I really expected better quality come from a Dexstar Usa product. Maybe alike of quality control.

Ask the Experts about this Dexstar Trailer Tires and Wheels
- Are There Center Caps Available for Dexstar Mini Mod Trailer WheelsI have a solution for you, but I did some searching and it doesn't look like we have any available center caps that are going to be compatible with the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20794. If you're looking for a little bit better looking wheel that won't break the bank, have a look at the Aluminum Leopard Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - 8 on 6-1/2 - Gunmetal Gray # LHJL513G. These are also an 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern 16" diameter wheel that gives you a good balance of price and...
view full answer... - Wheel Offset And Backspacing Of The Dexstar Mini-Mod 16" WheelsBackspacing and offset are terms used to look at the same thing in a different way. Backspacing is described as the distance from the center of the hub to the inside edge of the wheel at the bead seat whereas offset is the distance from the center of the wheel to its mounting face. On a wheel with a zero offset, the backspacing will be slightly larger than half of the width of the wheel because the wheel width is measured from bead seat to bead seat (see photo). It is not the overall width...

- Recommended Replacement For Dexstar # 17-293 With 16x6 8 Lug RimWhile searching for a replacement for your Dexstar #17-293, I found a great option that is the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20794. It has a zero offset with 3,960 pound capacity at 110 psi. It has an 8 lug on 6-1/2 inch bolt pattern and is compatible with 1/2-20 or 9/16-18 wheel studs. Sorry to hear about your bent rim. All kinds of things can cause a rim to bend...rough roads, debris in road, etc. Regardless of cause, bent rims are not fun! If this wheel is not...
view full answer... - Recommended Lug Nuts to Use with Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Wheel AM20794 The Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Wheel # AM20794 is compatible with both 1/2"-20 and 9/16"-18 studs, so the right lug nuts partly depends on the stud size for your existing hubs. For 1/2", the Redline # 12CLN will work really well and if you have 9/16" studs I recommend the Redline # 6-53. I have also attached links below that will take you to our full selection of 1/2" and 9/16" lug nuts that you can look through.
view full answer... - Can Wheels from a 2004 Ford F-350 be Used on a TrailerNo, you shouldn't use vehicle wheels on a trailer. Among other things, the offset (how far or close to the trailer the wheel is) is different on vehicles than trailers. Often times the bolt hole mounting patterns are not exactly right and the pilot (center) holes are usually not the correct sizes. Trailer tires and wheels are designed for more vertical load than passenger vehicle tires and wheels and for all of these reasons it is not recommended to use vehicle wheels for a trailer. I...
view full answer... - 16 inch Trailer Wheel with 6 Lug Bolt Pattern that Can Handle 110 PSIAs long as you install a valve stem like the part # AM20906 in the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20794 it would do just fine handling 110 psi. Typically it is the valve stem that is the limiting factor for tire pressure on a wheel and the one I recommended would handle 110 psi without a problem.
view full answer... - Dexstar Part Number of # AM20794 WheelDexstar's part number for the # AM20794 Mini-Mod wheel you referenced is 017-310-xx. It's a 16x6 rim with a zero offset and a 3960 lb/110 psi weight capacity/max pressure. It has a 8 lug on a 6-1/2 inch bolt pattern and is compatible with 1/2-20 or 9/16-18 wheel studs.
view full answer... - Can a Trailer Use Wheels that Have Different Weight CapacitiesAs long as the wheels are all rated for the weight of your trailer you would have no problem using the # AM20794 and # AM20760. Them having different weight capacities isn't a problem in it of itself, but if the combined weight capacities of all the wheels wasn't enough for the weight of your trailer that would be where the problem is. Both the wheels would have enough capacity to be used on a 7k axle so you would be fine.

The Dexstar # AM20794 is a 16x6 wheel with 8 on 6 1/2 bolt spacing and offers a maximum weight capacity of weight capacity of 3960 lbs, and a 110 psi rating when a metal valve stem like the Americana Metal, Bolt-In Valve Stem # AM20906

I've linked to a video review of this wheel for you to look at. This wheel has a silver powder coat, so if you'd like a different color wheel, I've also linked to a list our 16" 8 on 6-1/2" wheels for you to peruse.

First, for the wheels themselves, you can choose from the following Dexstar options, depending on your wheel bolt pattern: - 6 on 5-1/2: Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - Silver Powder Coat # AM20746 - 8 on 6-1/2: Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer...

We have several wheels that will match this wheel, but I recommend going with the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - 8 on 6-1/2 - White Powder Coat # AM20789 . I've also linked our entire selection of 16x6 wheels from Dexstar in the event that you decide you wanted to switch all of your wheels to a chrome/silver like the # AM20794

So if you are looking for an 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern these two would be a great match. For a valve stem use # AM20906. You can also use white Mini Mod wheel # AM20789 or 8 spoke white wheel # TTW660865WS4.

They are all the same size, bolt pattern, pilot diameter, and very similar finishes. The TTW660865SM3 has been replaced by # F2513166044 which has the highest capacity at 4,400 lbs. The # AM20797 has a 3,750 lb capacity and has a bit of flake in the powdercoat.

The main difference is the Load Range and therefore load capacity. The Kendas have a Load Range F with a maximum capacity of 3,960 pounds at 95 psi and the Taskmasters have a Load Range G with a maximum capacity of 4,080 pounds at 110 psi. Both are manufactured in Asia. As are nearly all tires these days, unfortunately. If you haven't already gotten them you'll...

This is a small difference, but I generally think the extra strength is worth it in this case when you're talking about 4 wheels and a trailer with a GVWR of roughly 14000-lbs. Either...

I went out to our warehouse to measure this hub and found that the pilot diameter of a wheel would need to be 4-3/4 inches to fit on this hub.
