Does anybody know where I can find the bolt pattern for my 5'er? It's a 2007 Mako 29RLFW made by Gulfstream. I need a rim for my spare tire since Carisle never sent me mine back and they have no record of it. It is a 6 lug design and a 15" rim. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
they are standard items. Do yourself a favor and get a new trailer tire rim combo.
I would do that, but Craplisle sent me 5 new tires to replace the blowout that I had so I already have an extra tire. Just want a safety net for a little while.
Any trailer shop should have rims. You could even go used. I would not use vehicle wheels on a travel trailer
why not? I've thought about going 10 ply LT tires after 2 blowouts, but none were available in 15" and I didn't want to buy 5 new wheels as well. I recently bought 10 ply E-rated carlisle trailer tires to replace the mission tires that my trailer came with, they were D rated.........

For a low utility open trailer, I have no problem with vehicle parts. But TT are very tall with a high center of gravity. The wheels and tires are designed for the higher lateral forces. It's been awhile since I read the information but the reasoning sounded solid and now that is the way I would do it. If you did not match up rims, the track would be off and on a dual axle, that would not be ideal
