Question:

Is your wheel AM20545 a direct replacement for Dexter 017-231, 15x5JJ 2200? I took the Dexter ID sticker numbers and want a spare for my United 14 V nose double axle utility trailer.

The Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel - 15" x 6" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - Black # AM20545 you were looking at will indeed replace the Dexstar 017-231 15x5JJ 2200, but this wheel will have a slightly lower load rating at 2150lbs instead of the 2200lb rating of the current wheels on your United 14' V nose tandem axle utility trailer.

If you are needing the full 2200lb load rating you will need to go with the Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel - 15" x 5" Rim - 5 on 4-1/2 - Black Powder Coat # DEX54FR instead, which has a slightly different design but has a 2200lb load rating.

I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
