Product Information

Full details

Its key benefit is the combination of a heavy-duty steel rim with a hard-wearing, E-marked trailer tyre, ensuring reliable performance and compliance. A minor consideration is that it comes with a specific 4-stud imperial pattern, so compatibility with existing hub fittings should be verified.

FAQs

What does '4 Inch PCD' mean?

PCD stands for Pitch Circle Diameter. A 4 Inch PCD means the diameter of the circle passing through the center of the four stud holes on the wheel rim is 4 inches. This is a critical measurement for ensuring the wheel fits the trailer hub.

Is this wheel suitable for all types of trailers?

This wheel is suitable for trailers that have a compatible hub with a 4 stud imperial 4 Inch PCD. Always check your trailer's hub specifications before purchasing.

What is the maximum load capacity of this wheel assembly?

The maximum load capacity for this wheel assembly is 785lbs (355kg).

How do I check the tyre pressure?

Use a reliable tire pressure gauge. Remove the valve cap, press the gauge firmly onto the valve stem, and read the pressure. The recommended pressure for this tyre is 70 PSI.

What does 'E marked' signify?

'E marked' signifies that the tyre meets the legal standards and regulations for safety, performance, and environmental protection for use on roads within Europe and the UK.

Can I fit this wheel on a trailer with a different stud pattern?

No, this wheel is specifically designed for a 4 stud imperial 4 Inch PCD. Attempting to fit it to an incompatible hub can be dangerous and may cause damage.

What is the tread depth of the tyre?

The tread depth of the Journey (Wanda) P815 tyre is 5mm.

Troubleshooting

Wheel does not fit trailer hub.

Verify the trailer's hub has a 4 stud imperial 4 Inch PCD and a 66.7mm center bore to match the wheel specifications.

Tyre pressure drops significantly.

Check for punctures or leaks. Ensure the valve stem is secure and the tyre bead is properly seated on the rim. Re-inflate to 70 PSI and monitor.

Vibration or imbalance during towing.

The wheel may be out of balance. Have the wheel assembly professionally balanced. Check for any damage to the rim or tyre.

Visible damage to the tyre sidewall or tread.

Discontinue use immediately and replace the tyre. Consult a professional for assessment if unsure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This wheel assembly features a 5.50x8 rim with a 4 Inch PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter). The stud holes are 12.5mm, and the centre hole diameter is 66.7mm. It is crucial to verify that your trailer's hub matches this 4 stud imperial 4 Inch PCD configuration before installation. The tyre is a 16.5x6.50-8 size.

Setup:

Installation typically involves aligning the wheel's 4 stud holes with the trailer's wheel studs and securing with appropriate lug nuts. Ensure the lug nuts are tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications for your trailer.

Care:

To maintain optimal performance and longevity:

  • Tire Pressure: Regularly check and maintain the tire pressure to the recommended 70 PSI. Incorrect pressure can affect load capacity, handling, and tire wear.
  • Cleaning: Clean the steel rim and tyre periodically with water and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the finish or rubber.
  • Inspection: Visually inspect the tyre for any signs of damage, cuts, or excessive wear, and check the rim for corrosion or deformation.
  • Storage: If storing the trailer for extended periods, ensure the tyres are not in contact with direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Consider using wheel chocks to support the trailer.
