posted this in the trailer forum also-

All I want to do is find a rim and tire as a spare. I've found that the bolt pattern on the trailstar trailer is 5 lug x 4.25" and it is a 14x6 rim which apparently is harder to find than the elusive Bigfoot. I can get the F65-14 tires online but the rim threw me a curve ball - I thought I would simply order a a standard 5x4.5 rim - not so easy. I'm going to try to go directy thru a tracker dealer but i'm sure I'll have to take a loan out to by from them. Short of changing out the hubs, I think my options are limited. Anyone else know where to find these rims???

ok - I feel stupid. I somehow got ahold of a 4.75" rim and thought it was a 4.5" - after researching the net, I found you need to measure from the edge of one lug hole to the center of the other - not center-center. I guess I do have standard lug 5x4.5 pattern on my trailer. Crisis avoided!!
