Hi Sergio!

I don't know why they do this, but Lionshead is pretty notorious for discontinuing their wheel designs. The Bobcat happens to be one of those, unfortunately. It is one that we used to carry, so I have a good idea of what it looks like and the closest is the Margay # LH69VR. However, it is a bit different and it also only comes in a 15 x 5, not a 15 x 6.

With all that said, if you are open to a completely different manufacturer and design, I personally like the 15 x 6 Aluminum Sendel Mod Trailer Wheel # AM22627 as it looks like the wheels lifted trucks and SUVs were using when I was a kid in the 90s. It is a completely different look, but thought I would throw it out there. Especially since Sendel almost never discontinues their wheels.

What kind of trailer do you have?

Thank you for reply Lazer. I will keep looking to see if I can find a good used rim locally as I am not ready to invest in 4 new rims and tires at the moment. Have a nice day. Sergio

@SergioM I hear that. Try some local trailer repair shops or trailer dealers. The Bobcat was one of their fairly popular ones, so someone might have some old stock. Good luck!
