The bolt pattern should be the same as on some kind of car . If you can figure out which car then you can look for rims that would work on that kind of car.
That is definitely not an "old" lady.

One of the best place to buy rims is Superbuy Tires (www.superbuytires.com)...However, when shopping for my wife's new rims I thought I would have to go down there and leave Simi...instead, I was getting my truck washed next to Just Tires, and went in there to look at their 22's and figured they could not compete with Superbuy....Well they proved me wrong...I took in a printout of the webpage from Superbuy and they beat the price with tires and out the door....I did not even have to leave my home town to get the a better deal then I thought was attainable. Go into your local Just Tires and take a print out from Super buy and ask them to beat it!
Superbuy carries pretty much everything so that should not be an issue.

Well you live in Nor Cal. I bought rims and tires from Les Schwab. They also lifted my jeep.
I don't think they have stores in the Bay Area but they do in the valley. Look on their web site www.lesschwab.com. They have the best selection I have seen in this area for sure.

If you are talking about a supercrew truck, the 211 would not be the ideal wheel. They are a two-peice wheel(cast center welded to a formed outer). IMO Not a wheel for a loaded down truck.

I think that most trailer rims are a GM car 5 bolt pattern. I got some rims for my trailer at Discount tire. If yo measure the Lugs diagonaly, you should be able to figure out the pattern. probally a 5 on 5 and 1/2. could be 5 on 5 and 1/4 .

New Member - First post. Yeah I'm in Louisiana but I DON'T know Hoss!
Most boat trailer rims with five lugs are 5 lugs on 4.5 inch bolt circle. This is same as Ford Crown vic and Mustang. Should be able to find some killer rims on ebay.
Most boat trailers with 6 lugs are 6 on 5.5 bolt circle, same as new Chevy 1/2 ton trucks.
Most large utility trailers (with two axles) will have 5 lugs on 5 inch bolt circle - same as old (88-98) Chevy 1/2 ton.
Hopes this helps.
