Question:

I need 2 trailer rims for spare tires on two of my trailers. I need help picking the correct rim. 1 has 5 lug x 2 5/8inch lug to lug, P205/75R15 1 has 6 lug x 2 3/4inch lug to lug, ST225/75R15 Thanks in advance. If you need more information just ask.

Expert Reply:

From the 2-5/8 inch center to center measurement between adjacent bolt holes, you have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern on the 5 lug wheel. According to my research, a 205/75-15 wheel can be safely mounted on a 5, 5-1/2, 6 or 6-1/2 inch wide wheel, but I'd recommend a 6 inch wide wheel like part # AM20522.

Your other rim should have a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern, but I'd recommend verifying it by looking at the photo I've provided. A 6 inch rim like part # AM20532 would work well for you.

Either rim includes the valve stem.
