Do You Have A White Rim And Tire For My Existing 225/75/15?

Question

Question:

Hi, I have a Penske car hauler that has 225/75/15 Load Range E tires. The rim lug bolt pattern is 6x5.5. I would like to purchase a white rim and tire. Do you have something that will fit? Thank you

Hey Ed,

We do have a white rim option with a tire for your trailer. I recommend the Kenda # AM32680, a white rim with tire that is load range E like your original tires giving it a 2,830lb capacity at 80psi. It does have a 6 x 5-1/2 bolt pattern. I recommend double checking your bolt pattern, what you mentioned is not a standard or common lug pattern on trailers. I would bet you have a 6 x 5-1/2 since that is by far the most common for that tire size.

I attached an article about measuring your bolt pattern to make sure we get you the right tire. Let me know if it is in fact a 6 x 4-1/2.

Nick, Demco informs me this is a special rim made for Penske trailers. The lug pattern is 6x4-1/2. Do you have a white 15" rim with that lug size? Ed

@Ed That is interesting, I have personally not heard of that bolt pattern before. We do not have any rims with that pattern, nor have I seen them before. I would bet you have a 6 on 5 1/2 bolt pattern on that trailer. If you want to double check and take a quick measurement to make sure. You will want to start at the center of one lug, skip 2 and measure to the center of the lug across. That will tell you that second half of the bolt pattern. Let me know what you get with that measurement.

In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.

The 5.30-12 tires, being wider, are going to make more contact with the road. This means that the noise, and heat build up will be higher than a 4.80-12 tire but the rolling resistance will actually be less because the tire is larger diameter. The…
