Trailer rims primarily fall into two categories: steel rims and alloy rims.

Steel rims are known for their durability and affordability. They are ideal for heavy-duty applications, offering strength and resistance to tough conditions. Many steel rims are finished with powder coating in black or white or are hot-dipped galvanized to provide long-lasting rust resistance, making them a practical choice for off-road or utility trailers.

Alloy rims, on the other hand, are lightweight and stylish. They reduce the overall weight of your trailer, which can improve handling and fuel efficiency. With modern finishes like satin black or machined face, alloy rims add a sleek appearance to your trailer while maintaining durability.

To ensure the right fit, it’s important to select rims that match your trailer’s specifications:

 

• Size: Common sizes include 13″, 14″, 15″, and 16″, suitable for various trailer types.

 

• Stud Patterns: The stud pattern must align with your trailer hub. Options such as Ford, Holden HT, Commodore (HQ), Landcruiser 6 Stud, and multifit patterns provide compatibility for different hub designs.

 

Matching the rim size and stud pattern to your trailer is essential for safe operation and even wear of the tires and bearings.

The finish of your rims impacts both appearance and resistance to wear:

 

• Powder Coating: Available in black or white, it protects against chipping and corrosion.

 

• Galvanized Finish: Excellent for marine or off-road trailers, offering superior rust resistance.

 

• Alloy Finishes: Satin black or machined face options add a contemporary look while being lightweight and durable.

Investing in the right rims can make all the difference in performance, durability, and style. Explore our range of trailer rims to find the perfect fit for your trailer’s needs and elevate your towing experience.
