Question:
Im looking at two different replacement wheels for my 5th wheel. The AM63NR and the AM43NR are the two Im deciding between. The 63NR doesnt say anything about 0 offset and 1/2inch and 9/16inch lug capacity. The 43NR says it will work with both lug sizes. They look identical but with different colors. Was that a detail missed on the 63NR or do I really need to get the 43NR to have the option of 1/2inch lug bolts?

Hi Eric!
The Americana Aluminum AM03 Series Gunmetal Gray Machined Trailer Wheel # AM63NR is indeed the same thing as the Americana Aluminum AM03 Series Black Machined Trailer Wheel # AM43NR; just the color is different.
They are both 16" x 6", have a 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern, have 4,400 pounds of capacity, have 0 offset, and can be used with either 1/2" or 9/16 lugs. Not sure why we don't have that last part on both parts, but I will see if I can get that fixed.
What kind of 5th wheel are you wanting this for?

Thanks Lazer. I got 4 of those ordered along with a wet bolt kit. I have a 45' Sanibel, and it pushes the factory axles and wheels. One of the wheels got a crack in it, so it was time to upgrade, and someday I will need to put heavier axles on it.
