I have attached for you below a list of all our 17.5" x 6.75" trailer wheels with an 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern below. There are a few different types of wheels in this list such as aluminum/steel, dually/standard, and hub/lug centric. If you can let me know more of what you have/want I would be glad to offer a more specific recommendation for you. The Taskmaster Modular Wheel part # TA35ZR for example is a hub-piloted steel wheel with negative offset so it will push the tires out away from the fenders more.

Hey Conner! I have a pair of Dexter 8k Torsion axles, 5/8 studs. What is the size of the center hole? How important is the offset? I can't get a decent measurement with my calipers. Guessing 120 mm Thanks, Russ

@Russell the wheel is hub piloted so the 4.76" pilot diameter is very important and needs to match your hub. I would get a precise measurement to make sure it fits as intended. The offset isn't something I would worry about too much at +0.08" but it is a good idea to match it if you already have one on your current wheels.
