Features to know about

Built for Heavy Loads Without Breaking a Sweat: 6,050-lb Capacity per Wheel

When you’re hauling serious weight, the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel steps up with a 6,050-lb rating and zero offset for balanced support. Each 17-1/2" x 6-3/4" rim is hub-piloted and designed to handle demanding loads with 8 on 6-1/2" bolt spacing and 5/8" wheel bolts. It’s a setup that gives you the confidence to roll fully loaded without second-guessing your gear.

Rustproof Strength That Lasts: Lightweight Aluminum Construction

Salt spray, rain, and road grime won’t take this one down. The rustproof aluminum build keeps corrosion away while cutting unnecessary weight. The silver Lynx Series design looks sharp and stays that way, even after long exposure to wet or humid conditions. It’s a practical upgrade that keeps your trailer looking clean and ready for the next trip.

Secure Fitment That Holds Tight: Hub-Piloted Design with Flange Nuts

The hub-piloted layout uses flange nuts (sold separately) for solid mounting and load distribution across the wheel face. That means consistent torque and less stress on your studs when you’re pulling heavy. With a 4.75" pilot diameter and 8 on 6-1/2" pattern, the fit is exact and stable mile after mile.

Built to Meet Real-World Standards: DOT-Compliant Design

This wheel meets Department of Transportation specifications, so you know it’s built for highway use under real towing conditions. Every dimension—from the 17-1/2" diameter to the 4.75" pilot bore—matches what serious haulers expect from a premium aluminum wheel backed by a limited lifetime structural warranty.

Determining Bolt Pattern

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.

Center to Center
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).

Center to Outside Edge
Common configurations: 5 on 4.5" (most popular), 5 on 5", 5 on 4.75", 5 on 5.5"

I got a new trailer and it looked so plain, called etrailer and they hooked me up. The wheels and accessories got here in two days as they said in perfect condition. Just what I wanted, will get more stuff from them for sure



by:

We ordered 2 of these wheels as replacements for our travel trailer. They are exact replacements for our wheels, except for the black painted inserts and black inside of wheel that came on our Coachmen. The price was excellent and shipping was free within the U.S. The service and coordination we received from Sandy J. was above and beyond. We will gladly shop at etrailer.com again. Thanks



by:

Perfect match to my OEM trailer wheels. Ordering on line was easy. Great price and quick delivery. Etrailer is my go to for my trailer needs.



by:

Matches our other trailer rims perfectly.



by:

Rims are high quality and really set my boat trailer restoration off!!!

As always! Great products. Super fast shipping and great prices. Thank you again.

First of all Teresa was great. She answered all my questions , researched information concerning the wheel. Bottom line she is an asset to your company And well deserving 10 stars. Product was exactly how she described it and I’m very satisfied with the order. Thank you Teresa , stay safe.



by:

I ordered the wheel so I can build a spare tire for my trailer. It's a perfect match and the customer service was fantastic. Great company to do business with.



by:

These rims look better in person, than in the picture. I am very happy with the look on the trailer, and they are designed to hold the load rating I need.



by:

I chose this wheel due to the fact it was half the price of my original, and I like the looks of it better than the original. Having now a mismatched set of wheels on a tandem trailer, I plan to order another so at least from one side of the trailer will look correct. Britney was awesome to work with and so helpful. Thank you Britney!



by:

I bought complete brake assemblies, drums, bearing and wheels. I am not a computer guy, but you have a fantastic website and sales staff. They are friendly and am pretty much blown away by etrailer. No one else does it like this.



by:

Had these wheels shipped to my hotel in time for my return home to New Zealand the following day. With clear communication Crystal S handled my order with true professionalism.
These wheels were truely meant for my home built all aluminium trailer.
Thank you so much Crystal S and eTrailer.



by:

I just ordered new Kenda Karrier Load Star tires and had them mounted on these Lionshead wheels. I also purchased chrome wheel lug nuts, and the chrome hub covers. The final combo looks pretty good. The only thing I have to pick up are a couple of sets of McGard Locking Lug nuts. I'll have to purchase those from a different vendor, because etrailer doesn't sell McGard products, but thats ok. Can't wait to hit the road with the trailer. The trailer has taken on a new appearance, And the new E rated tires should perform really well.

Hey Kevin. I double checked what we carry and you're right, we don't list that size. I checked with Lionshead and they are telling me that the correct center cap for this wheel is part # LHCS109-SI60C. I know it doesn't list it as a fit for the 4.75 but based off what Lionhead is saying, it should still fit.



by:

Outstanding Service, fast delivery just what I needed thank you!!!



by:

The wheels look good and feel heavy duty, I would have liked to see steel sleeves in the lug nut holes. We are planning on a 3000 mile trip. We will see how they work out.

  • Availability of Black Lionshead Lynx 17.5 Wheel
    Hi Kelly; I'm sorry to say the Lynx wheels were discontinued by Lionshead and the black version is no longer around/in stock. The only one we still have is the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel - 17-1/2" x 6-3/4" Rim - 8 on 6-1/2 - Silver # LI44FR. If you don't want to swap out all of the wheels to match your best bet is to check with a local RV junkyard to see if they have the black ones.

  • Max PSI for Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel
    Hey Brent! The Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel # LI44FR itself doesn't have a max psi since the limiting factor will always be the valve stem. I reached out to Lionshead and since this one comes with a metal valve stem the max psi is 150. It will be able to handle any of the tires you're planning to use. Are you swapping out all of your wheels and tires?

  • 17-1/2" Replacement Wheels for 2007 Teton 5th Wheel With 215/75R17.5 Tires
    Hi Kelly, welcome back! You can still use the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel # LI44FR I mentioned before, it just isn't available in black. If you want black wheels I recommend the Aluminum Trinity Series Trailer Wheel # TA84XR. Unlike Lionshead, Taskmaster styles tend to stick around so if you ever need a replacement it won't be so hard to find a matching wheel. These wheels have a slightly lower capacity, and with four of them they can handle 19,400 lbs. Even if you're maxed out at 20,000...

  • Can I Use 1/2" Studs With A 17.5" Wheel?
    Hello Danny, thanks for reaching out. You would not want to use 1/2" studs with a 17.5" wheel, unless the wheel is made specifically to work with 1/2" studs. Virtually every 17.5" trailer wheel is made to work with 5/8" studs. If this was to be used with 1/2" studs it would be highly unsafe and would likely destroy your wheels and hubs. For example, the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel # LI44FR is a 17-1/2" wheel that requires 5/8" studs. I hope this helps. Feel free to reach out and leave...

  • Availability Of 17.5" Lionshead Aluminum Bearcat Wheels
    Hello Brian, thanks for reaching out. Sadly, we do not offer the Lionshead Bearcat wheel in a 17.5". Right now the only silver 17.5" aluminum wheels we offer are the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel # LI44FR and the Aluminum Trinity Series Trailer Wheel # TA24XR. If you reach out directly to Lionshead they might be able to tell you how/where to get the Bearcat 17.5". Otherwise the only solution we can offer would be something similar.

  • Replacement Wheel Recommendation for a 17-1/2" Lionshead Bearcat
    Hey Buddy, thanks for reaching out! The Lionshead Bearcat line of wheels was labeled as no longer available a while back so you'll be hard-pressed to find them anywhere. Since this is the case, I recommend picking up the 17-1/2" Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel # LI44FR instead since it has somewhat of a similar design, and an 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern. Is this for a spare tire, or are you needing to replace one of your regular tires/wheels?

  • Will Aluminum Trinity Series Trailer Wheel Fit 5/8" Wheel Bolts
    Hi Joseph; the Aluminum Trinity Series Trailer Wheel # TA84XR is only compatible with 9/16-18 wheel bolts. We only have one 17-1/2" wheel with an 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern that fits 5/8" wheel bolts. That is the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel # LI44FR.

  • Torque Spec for 17-1/2" Sumec Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel
    Hey Don, thanks for reaching out! Sounds like you have the 17-1/2" Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel # LI44FR. This installs with 5/8" flange nuts which means you're looking at 190-210 ft-lbs if they have rotating flanges, or 275-325 ft-lbs if the flange does not rotate. Do you already have the flange nuts?

  • Will Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel Fit 40' Single Axle Gooseneck Trailer
    Hello Richard; the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel # LI44FR will fit your gooseneck trailer as long as you have hubs with an 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern. These have a max capacity of 6,050 lbs so with two wheels on a single axle they can handle 12,100 lbs. Each wheel weighs 32 lbs.

  • Looking for 17-1/2 inch Diameter Wheel with 8 Lug Bolt Pattern 9/16" Stud Size
    Hey William, I wish we could help but we don't have a version of that wheel that has the correct wheel stud size that you need. We don't have a whole lot of options that would match what you need but we do have the part # LH88VR which does match the wheel stud size you need of 9/16 inch and is also 17-1/2 inch with an 8 on 6-1/2 inch bolt pattern.

  • Spare Wheel Needed For a 2017 DRV 5TH Wheel Camper 17.5 X 6.75 with 8 on 6.5 Lug 5/8 Wheel Stud
    Currently the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel # LI44FR is the only lug centric 17.5 X 6.75 wheel with a 8 on 6.5" lug pattern and zero offset that fits a 5/8" wheel stud we carry. The only concern I have is the pilot hole borecenter size. This wheel only has a 4.75" pilot hole. As you do have a lug centric wheel it may still fit your axle. You will need to measure the center hub on your 2017 DRV 5th Wheel camper to determine if the smaller pilot hole size will fit. To measure this you will...

  • Availability of a 17 1/2" Diameter Wheel That Uses 1/2" Wheel Studs
    Hey Josh, we do also have the Aluminum Bearcat Trailer Wheel which is the same size wheel as the Aluminum Lynx Trailer Wheel # LI44FR but it's in a gunmetal grey color, which looks pretty cool if you ask me. But unfortunately, all the 17-1/2" wheels from we have are designed to fit 9/16" wheel studs. We currently do not have any 17-1/2" diameter wheels which are capable of fitting the 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern with only a 1/2" stud.

  • Do You Have a Lionshead 16" x 6" Silver Lynx Wheel w/ a 8 Lug Bolt Pattern?
    Hey Matt. The only 8 lug silver Lynx wheel we have is the Lionshead 17-1/2" x 6-3/4" Rim item # LI44FR. We do not have a 16" x 6" Lynx wheel.
