Question:
I am looking for a spare tire for my trailer it has a Dexstar 17-231 15x5JJ rim and ST205/75R15 tire on it now. I found a replacement rim on your website that matches up part number AM20443 but you only have white. I found a second rim part number DEX54FR in black, is this rim the same but just a different style. Will the DEX54FR work for my trailer. I was going to also purchase Tire part number AM10245.

Hey Clifford, it sounds like you've done your research! So the Dexstar Steel Spoke Trailer Wheel # DEX54FR and the Dexstar Steel Mini Mod Trailer Wheel # AM20443 are not the same but they are pretty close. They both are the same size, have the same bolt pattern, and the same weight capacity. The only real differences being the color, one is white and one is black, and the design of the wheel - one has an 8 spoke design and one has a mini mod design.
Both of these wheels will work with the Karrier # AM10245 tire you're looking at as well. Since it sounds like you don't want white though, the Dexstar # AM20440 (which is a just a black version of # AM20443 and is closest to what you have now) and the tire # AM10245 is what you're going to want.
If there is anything else I can do for you, please feel free to drop a comment and let me know!
