19.5" or 17.5" Wheels with a twist - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Mutt · 11-26-2004, 07:51 PM

Looking for 19.5" or 17.5" Wheels, BUT with a 6x5.5 lug pattern. I have a off-highway trailer/camper with a toy axle, for towing the 35's I have on it have too much sidewall sway and I can get used 17.5" and 19.5" tires from work for free (used take-offs), I am dead set on the 35" diameter for the level pull and look. I have considered 10.00R15's as well but can't find any used.

So trying to find wheels, considered having some customs made but fawk I may as well buy the 10.00R15's for that kinda cash.

Thanks in advance, and I know 35"s on a trailer seem silly but hey, i'm a hillbilly

I'm not sure about 17.5 but all 19.5 that I have every seen are 8 lug. I think that the only option for 19.5 is going to be recentering them. I don't know if you are willing to go that far. For a little while I was looking at 19.5 for my tow rig but they don't have many tire sizes and really you can only get about 32"-33" not many options. I guess if you want them bad enough though you can usually find the 19.5 on bread vans in junk yards for pretty cheap and then have some one on the board recenter them (I don't think that there is enough metal to just reuse the centers and redrill for the different lug pattern. I don't know though.

Give John a call at Stazworks, he will be able to make you a set of 19.5s with any BP you want.

Check www.ricksontruck.com for plenty of info on 19.5" tires. There's a boat load of them available.
