Hello Barry, Since you already have a weight distribution (WD) hitch and are only experiencing a little rear sag, I recommend going with SumoSprings. I typically only suggest Timbrens for those who are towing heavy loads regularly, as they can create…
Hello Tony, I really wish I had a database that tells me exactly what goes on each camper, but unfortunately, I don’t. Based on my research, you should have a 4,400-pound axle (you can double-check your axle tag to confirm). If it is NOT a Lippert…
For your 5th wheel camper, the wheels will have holes that will fit the 1/2 inch and leave space for easy installation. The lug nut are coned to help center the wheel on the hub so there won't be any slop or issue. Wheels like the Aluminum HWT…
Hello Ed, thanks for reaching out. We do offer some 16" 8-lug wheels, but nothing with a 4.80 pilot. For example the Vesper Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - 8 on 6-1/2 - White #MX27FR has a 4.88" pilot and a 4,460 lb…
Good question, Corey. Since the Americana 14" Aluminum AM03 Series Black Wheel #AM48NR is designed for use on 1/2-20 lugs, you will want to torque the lug nuts to between 75 to 85 ft-lb. I included an image showing all the torque values we have…
The Aluminum HWT Hi-Spec Series 03 Mod Trailer Wheel - 15" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 Item #AM22646 do not come with center caps or lug nuts. I recommend the Trailer Wheel Center Cap, Chrome, 4.25" Pilot Size Item #425EZ for your center…
Hey Ken, The wheels we have can handle any psi that the tire being mounted on them can. So the Sendel Aluminum Mod Trailer Wheel #AM22646 will be able to handle the 95 psi rating you mentioned. I'm attaching a link to our selection of 15"…
Hello Alex, thanks for reaching out. The Goodyear Endurance ST235/85R16 Radial Tire w/ 16" Margay Aluminum Wheel #LH35VR is balanced high side to low side, but they are not spin balanced like car tires. Having them spin balanced is not required,…
To measure the width of a trailer wheel you will measure from where the tire beads will seat on the wheel. That will be from the inside of the inner wheel flange to the inside of the outer wheel flange, not from edge to edge of the wheel. To measure…
Hello Michael, thanks for reaching out. The Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel #DEX54FR actually does not have a specific max PSI rating. It can handle the max PSI of any 15" trailer tire. The max PSI is determined by the tire, and the valve…
Since wheels will be able to withstand the psi rating of any of the tires that are meant to fit it you will need to look at the valve stem as that is the deciding factor. If your valve stem has the rubber all the way up to the threads, like part…
The HWT in the name of the Aluminum HWT Hi-Spec Series 03 Mod Trailer Wheel - 15" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 #AM22646 you were looking at is the companies name as an abreveation. The full name is Hi-Spec Wheel and Tire. The #AM22646 has a load…

Tire Repair Tools: Essential for Every Road Warrior
Tire repair tools are a must-have for anyone who spends time on the road. Whether you're a weekend warrior or a long-haul traveler, having the right tools can save you from unexpected tire troubles. Consider the quality, fit, and compatibility with your v
Practice using your tire repair tools before you need them. Familiarize yourself with the process of patching a tire and replacing valve stems. Keep your tools organized and easily accessible in your vehicle. This preparation can make a big difference when you're on the road.
Check the specifications of your tires and compare them with the valve stem sizes in the kit. Some kits offer multiple sizes, which can be handy. It's also a good idea to have a few extra stems on hand, as they can vary slightly in size, like having both 14mm and 9/16" nuts.
Store your tire repair tools in a dry, cool place to prevent rust and damage. Regularly check the condition of the tools and replace any worn-out parts. Keeping them clean and organized will ensure they are ready to use when you need them most.
Common issues include mismatched sizes of valve stems and tools that don't fit your specific tire type. It's important to verify the compatibility of all components before hitting the road. Also, ensure that the tools are of high quality to avoid any failures during use.
A quality tire repair kit should include durable tools that fit your specific tire needs. Look for kits with high-quality valve stems, patches, and tools that are easy to use. Compatibility with your vehicle's tires is crucial, and having a mix of sizes can be beneficial for different situations.
