Helpful Expert Reply:

Trailer wheels that are 17-1/2 inches wide commonly use 9/16" lug nuts, and we do have those, but not locking lug nuts of that size; the best option is to get the lug nuts that fit and utilize a wheel lock. For the lug nuts you can use either of the following:

- Lionshead Trailer Wheel Lug Nut - 9/16"-18 - Stainless Steel # LHLR110

- Trailer Wheel Lug Nut - 9/16" Diameter - Zinc Plated # 6-53

Then for a wheel lock that will fit that size wheel, I recommend a Rack'em lock:

- Rack'em Lock'em Magnum Wheel Lock # RA-25

I like this wheel lock because it is simple to use, made of thick steel for strength, and has a rubber coating on its arms so it won't cause any damage to your wheels.
