Is There a Trailer Wheel with a 5 on 4-1/4 inch Bolt Pattern
Updated 07/21/2025 | Published 02/08/2021 >
Question:
Jet ski trailer - I’m looking for a wheel 13” 5 lug with 4.25” pattern and 185/85R13 tire. I only found 5 lug with 4.5 pattern. Do you have options?

Expert Reply:
The most popular trailer wheel bolt pattern is the 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern and as far as we are aware the bolt pattern you mentioned is not used on trailers at all. So my bet is you probably have the 5 on 4-1/2 inch. I attached a help article that has more info on checking bolt pattern for you to check out.
For a radial in the tire size of 185/80R13 with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern we have the part # AM32156 which would work great.

I just started making a utility trailer from an old sailboat trailer and it has 5 on 4.250 pattern. Should be a hoot to find rims.

You are wrong, 5 on 4 1/4 is a trailer rim
