Question:

This rim looks like it has a lip around the center hole facing the mounting surface. I need a similar steel wheel without the lip. Can you supply? Thanks

I see the little lip you are referring to on the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel - 15" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 - Silver Powder Coat, # AM20539. I have not heard of that small lip being any issue and all of the wheels have a similar rolling in of that edge.

My recommendation for you to stay with the modular style and minimize that inner lip at the pilot hole is the Taskmaster Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 15" x 6" Rim - 6 on 5-1/2 - Silver, # TA52FR. This is a steel wheel that is sturdy and corrosion resistant. It has a 3- step finishing process consisting of a zinc phosphate bath, e-coat primer, and silver powder coat. It has ITR which is improved torque retention technology that helps to keep the wheel securely in place with uncoated stud holes that are beveled to offer better clamp force retention. This wheel has no offset.
