This 17-1/2" x 6-3/4" modular wheel is all business when it comes to strength. With a 6,005-lb capacity, an 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern, and a +0.5" offset, it’s made for serious weight handling. The hub-piloted design centers on the hub for a secure, balanced fit every time, giving you the confidence to haul heavy loads without compromise.
Rust and road grime don’t stand a chance against the wheel’s triple-layer coating system. It starts with a zinc phosphate bath for paint adhesion, followed by an acrylic e-coat primer, then finished on both sides with baked-on DuPont black powder paint. The result is a durable finish that holds up through heat, moisture, and repeated use while staying sharp and clean.
This wheel uses a hub-piloted setup that centers on the hub—not the lugs—to keep things tight and true under load. It requires flange nuts (sold separately) for installation, just like heavy-duty commercial wheels. That design helps maintain a precise fit that stays put mile after mile.
Every wheel meets SAE J1204 standards, so you know it’s built to handle real-world stresses. Whether you’re on long hauls or steady daily towing, this heavy-duty steel rim delivers the toughness and consistency you can count on—without extra fuss or worry.
1. Count the lug holes
Look at the wheel hub or the back of the wheel and count how many lug holes there are(also called bolt holes).
Common configurations include: 4-lug, 5-lug, 6-lug and 8 lug
2a. For even lug counts (4-lug, 6-lug, 8-lug)
Measure from the center of one lug hole directly across to the center of the hole opposite it.
Common configurations: 4 on 4", 6 on 5.5", 8 on 6.5"
2b. For odd lug counts (5-lug)
Measure from the center of one lug hole to the outer edge of the hole directly across (not center-to-center since there's no directly opposite hole).
Common configurations: 5 on 4.5" (most popular), 5 on 5", 5 on 4.75", 5 on 5.5"

Hello neighbors and friends. Steven here with etrailer.com. Folks, today we're looking at the Americana modular wheel with a 0.5 inch offset. It's 17.5 in diameter by 6 3/4 inches, and it's an eight lug on 6.5 inch lug pattern. Now folks, this heavy-duty steel wheel with the modular design, modular meaning these circles here, is sturdy and corrosion-resistant. It is designed for use on trucks, buses, and trailers.
It has a nice three-step finishing process, which includes a zinc phosphate bath, then an e-coat primer, and finally finishing up with a black powder coat on both sides of the wheel. It's also what we call a hub-piloted wheel, so that means it requires the use of flange nuts, which are sold separately, to install this correctly on your hub. Now, as I mentioned, it's 17.5 inches in diameter by 6 3/4 inches, and it has again, a pilot hole diameter of 4.76 inches. Now the offset, again, is a positive 0.5 inch or a half inch, and that just means that the hub mounting surface is located on the front half of the wheel closer to that wheel face. Has a nice two-year limited warranty from the manufacturer and it is used for trailers with disc brakes.
So very nice product here by Americana. This again is the modular wheel, eight lug 6.5 inch. Again, you need flange nuts to install this correctly. Folks, that's gonna wrap it up. I'm Steven., thanks for looking with me.

Blem wheel due to paint. Worked perfect for a spare
The wheel is of excellent quality. I purchased it as a second spare after I had two blowouts of the old tires on one trip. My wheels do not have an offset but .5 inch should not be a problem. It was all that was available when I purchased.
So far good, website was having trouble (could have been on our end) and I had a very positive experience with Josh, I prefer talking to a real person so it worked out just fine!
Excellent customer service. All of my questions were answered and they led me to the exact wheel that I was needing.
