Bolt Pattern

Hey guys. Im not sure if all campers are universal or not, but Im wondering if someone can tell me my bolt pattern? I have a 2003 Salem by Forest River. Its got some cruddy painted white cheap looking rims on it and Id like to spruce it up a bit with some nice rims.

I took a measurement best I could and it appears to be either 5x4.25 or 5x4.5. I read somewhere that most trailers are a 5x4.5 if I remember correctly?

Thanks guys!
  • The standard pattern for 5 lug wheels on trailer is 5 X 4.5" PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter, the correct term for the lug hole pattern's diameter. I have no idea why they call it that). You should look for trailer specific wheels, and that way you will get the correct offset and pilot hole diameter, which is also critical to wheel fitment.
