Specs:
This tire-and-wheel assembly comes with complimentary roadside assistance for 2 years. If your RV or trailer has a flat tire, call the help line and a technician will come change the flat for you. You can call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year from anywhere in the United States, Canada, or Puerto Rico.
This tire has a 1-year No Excuses Guarantee. If within the first 12 months the tire is damaged in any way that's not covered by warranty, it will be replaced at no charge. You will also be compensated a flat labor rate for the cost of mounting the replacement tire.
The NitroFill inflation process filters out oxygen to ensure that this tire-and-wheel assembly is filled with 95 to 99.9 percent pure nitrogen. Nitrogen-inflated tires maintain pressure better than tires inflated with standard air. This makes them ideal for RVs and trailers that are driven infrequently or sit in storage for long periods of time. Other benefits of consistent tire pressure are better fuel economy, improved braking and handling, decreased chance of tire failure, and longer tire life.
A tire inflated with standard air, which contains oxygen, is prone to fluctuations in pressure due to loss of air over time and ambient temperature changes. Nitrogen-inflated tires don't experience these fluctuations for a couple reasons. First, nitrogen molecules are larger than oxygen molecules, so they are less likely to permeate a rubber tire. Second, nitrogen is a dry gas, so it won't allow condensation to build inside the tire. A tire inflated with standard air may have moisture in it, which means it is more likely to be affected by ambient temperature.
In addition, the moisture that can collect in a tire inflated with standard air will contribute to corrosion of the wheel and deterioration of the rubber tire from the inside out. A nitrogen-inflated tire-and-wheel assembly is less likely to experience this type of decay. Less moisture in the tire also means reduced running temperatures.
If necessary, you can top off the tire with standard compressed air. But to maintain the benefits of nitrogen, the tire must be refilled with nitrogen.
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.
This radial ply tire from Westlake is constructed with double steel belts and double polyester cords for increased durability. A protective layer of nylon is wrapped around the steel belts to help prevent tread separation.
The standard tread on this tire has solid, continuous ribs, and there are very few sipes (or thin grooves) cut into the rubber. This tire is designed for use on trailers, so it doesn't require the level of traction that would be needed on a vehicle that is braking or steering.
Radial ply tires are designed for trailers that are towed on the highway. The cords on a radial tire are positioned at a 90-degree angle to the direction of travel so that they lay across the width of the tire from wheel lip to wheel lip. This construction prevents the cords from rubbing against one another when the tire flexes, unlike the cords on a bias ply tire. As a result, radial tires have less rolling resistance and heat buildup, which leads to a longer tread life and improved steering at higher speeds.
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.

Radial tire has an 8-ply rating and a 2,040-lb max load at 65 psi. 14" x 5-1/2" Steel wheel has 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern. Nitrogen fill maintains tire pressure. 1-Year No Excuses Guarantee on tire. Complimentary roadside assistance included.The wheels are made in the USA, the tires in China. Most tires are. The silver powder coat on the wheels looks great. Powder coating is one of the best finishes for steel. I have powder coated lots of the parts on my off road car with good results, so that is why I chose wheels with this finish. I will be going on a trip this thanksgiving, and will follow up with another review after that first use of these wheels/tires.
As advertised, and fit perfect. Can’t wait to try the tires out.
During a long trip down a gravel road in New Mexico we had a flat on our travel trailer, and as I changed to the spare I knew we had an equally long distance to go, now with no spare. So when we got home I ordered another spare, and etrailer had the identical spare on my vehicle for a good price. Because we travel a lot on backroads, it won't be such a bad thing to have more than 1 flat now.
Spare tire and wheel came for my “Coleman Lantern Lt 202RD” today. Perfect condition, size, pressure, and packaging! Who could ask for anything more? Thank you!
Ítem arrived on time, as described, they seem to be good quality, I will need to mount on trailer and see the performance I get from them, so far satisfied with service.
Looks great, already hooked on as my replacement spare tire! Super fast shipping too, less than 1 week!
I messed up my order but they worked with me and had it resolved in a few minutes. As always very satisfied

The delivery was prompt and the packages arrived in good condition. The tires appear to be in perfect condition and as advertised. The package tracking was informative the whole way. I would definitely consider etrailer.com as my first choice when i need any parts or accessories in the future.
The spare tire carrier fit very well and was very easy to install. I hope i don't have to use the spare tire. Everything arrived very quickly. I am very happy with the service i received.
