Hi Ronnie I needed a rim for my equipment trailer. I went to the junk yard here an got a Ford Ranger rim, goes right on no problems. Hope this helps you.

Hi ronnie,

Also besure your trailer does not use hub concentric wheels, meaning the center of the wheel fits snuggley over the hub face and carrys part of the wheel load weight. This should not effect axles under 5k rating but you never know.

I just paid $75 delivered for a new pair of 5x41/2, 13" modular rims for my boat trailer. southwestwheel.com

That's ford passenger car ( well, it was when they weren't 4 bolt). Most current would be small ford 2wd truck.(bronco II, etc)
you can buy a new white spoke in a 14 or 15" for about $20 in this bolt pattern, so don't pay to much for a junk yard wheel

Ford Small car= 5 on 4.5
Chevy small car= 5 on 4.75
Ford/Chevy Big car (old lincoln/ Caprice) + 2wd chev pu = 5 on 5"
Ford Big PU : 5 on 5.5
Most 6 lug = 6 on 5.5
renault leCar= 3 on 130
fiat x1/9 4x110mm
MGB 4 on 4.5
vega 4 on 4 (also austin healy sprite

Man, i remember way too much useless junk from selling custom wheels 20 years ago

OOPS-
fiat x 1/9 4 on 98mm
mazda rx7 4 on 110mm
everything else jap car 4 on 100mm
walts saab sonnet 5 on 130 (?)
someone on here had an alfa romeo 4 on 4.25, same as ford car....
late vw bug 4 on 130, early vw bug 4 on 130
early subaru (brat) 4 on 140
brain flood....

Lots of Chrysler products used 5 lugs with 4 1/2" bolt circle for many years. 1/2 ton Dodge, too.

In Texas, try NTB. don't let them order American Racing (too expensive), you want Mangels or KMC

 

[jose bagge]

yep...AMC too
