Will this option work with a 1/2 lug bolt?

Hello Ryan, thanks for reaching out. No, the # LH88VR wheel will not work with 1/2" wheel studs. It should only be used with 9/16" studs. 1/2" studs would leave open space in the lug hole and this would eventually eat up and destroy your wheel studs.
If you studs are 1/2" you will want to stick with a wheel made for 1/2" studs. Any trailer that uses a 17-1/2" 8-lug wheel should absolutely be equipped with 9/16" studs.
What trailer is this going on? What size tires and wheels do you have currently?

Part Number: WST68FR is the exact wheel and tire combo on my camper. 235/85 r16. I have a 2021 forest river rouge armor 383 toy hauler. I was wanting to increase safety factor by going to 17.5 option. I run them on my gooseneck and have had much more longevity and reliability. Thanks
