From my available research, the Dexstar model 17-293 measures 16" x 6" and has a 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern. While we do not carry this exact model, we do have a replacement with the identical dimensions.

If this is the size you need, I recommend the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel - Silver Powder Coat # AM20794. This rim comes with a 3,960 pound capacity and fits standard stud sizes 1/2"-20 and/or 9/16"-18. To top it all off, they are made 100% in the U.S.A. We also carry the white Vesper Steel Modular Trailer Wheel - 16" x 6" Rim - 8 on 6-1/2 # MX27FR.

Hey Bryan, that's a good question. The pricing can definitely be misleading, but I wouldn't use it to judge the quality of the tire. A lot of that comes down to promotions, inventory, and whether you're looking at a tire by itself or…
