Is the 17.5" Lionshead Steel Dual Wheel LH49VR Offered With A Silver/Aluminum Finish?  

Updated 12/31/2025 | Published 12/18/2025

Question:

Wheel LH49FR is a match for the wheels on my RV. We had one damaged in an incident. The only thing is, I need it in the aluminum finish not black.

Hi Cliff!

It looks like the Lionshead Steel Dual Wheel - 17-1/2" x 6-3/4" - 8 on 6-1/2 - 4.76" Pilot - Black # LH49VR is only offered in black, but we do have another option. Check out the Americana Dual Wheel w/ Offset - 17.5" x 6-3/4" - 8 on 6.5 - Silver # AM52NR.

This matches every specification from the Lionshead wheel, but it is offered in silver, so it should match what you have much closer. I couldn't find anything in a chrome or aluminum finish, unfortunately.

With all this being said, is this needed for a motorized RV, or a pull behind trailer/camper? Both of these are specifically for trailers and should not be used on anything motorized.

That is the wrong wheel. I asked about the LH49FR

@CliffF Oh shoot, sorry about that. I was looking at the wheel you asked the question off of, which is a very similar part number. My bad. Lionshead is pretty notorious for discontinuing wheels, and it looks like this is the case for the silver finished Liger wheel (which they call gun metal). This was a pretty popular wheel though, so you may be able to find one at a local trailer/RV place. The original part number was JFLG-150-600-6GMF and it appeared there may be one or two still available online, but no stock was listed that I could find. Sorry I don't have better news for you.

@LazerS I sent a request to Lionshead on 12/18 to see if they could locate any stock of the wheel I am looking for. I have not heard anything back from them. Cliff
