Not to be a total smartass, but can't you just measure the ones you have??

396, just ask devilman to let you buy these from him. although it might lower his table height. but im sure he can find some milk cartons to go with the table.........http://www.***boat.com/image_center/data/520/1570beerpong_1.jpg

Measuring is the best way, all trailers are close to the same but if your going custom, throw a tape measure on it. And if your running 18's I'm guessin we won't be seeing you at Apache over the Summer :idea:

I'll sure sell them to him, no problem there. But you know he already has a set of spinners on layaway at Autozone..... :crossx: :D

When I was rebuilding my trailer I heard that the std. is a Chevy 5 lug pattern...
I had to replace a rim when I got my boat, and the dudes at America's Tire didn't know what size rim so they came out w/ a cool measuring tool and fitted one just to make sure before ordering a replacement

i just changed out my wheels and my trailer had 4 and 1/2 inch 5 bolt pattern as far as offset there could be very little with my trailer or tires would rub the wood inside fenders.......

i know the bolt pattern is a 5 on 4 1/2 . I guess I'll just have to mesaure the back spacing......

396- I think it should be a standard offset, they should know. Measure the backspace you have now.

I have a set of 18 on my boat trailer i used a standard offset for a 88-98 Chevy fullsize truck and used a 1 1/4 wheel spacer with the chevy lug patern so i did not have to fill and redrill my wheels. worked really good and looks bad ass!!!
