Wheels

[ricky b]

I need a spare for 60's Volunteer travel trailer. When the wheels were removed to put on new tires the words Dayton/Fayette were written on the drum. I have been unable to locate any of these except for some in Florida who wants $150+ per wheel. I am hoping to find one cheaper than that otherwise I will take my chances.
Any help is welcomed.

Type in "RV salvage yards and surplus centers" in your search engine. I don't have current links on my laptop or I would supply a hyperlink to a couple.

First off are the wheels 4 hole , 5 hole, 6 hole or the type that uses clamps on the rim . If it one of the 4,5,or 6 hole rims, Measure the distance between the center of one hole and the hole beside it this will give you the spacing of theholes on a 4 hole wheel. On a 5 or 6 hole wheel, you measure from the center of one hole to the center of the second hole,(skipping a hole) .you will now have the spacing of the bolt pattern. Wheels are listed as to size 14" ,15" etc. The amout of holes, 4,5,etc. the spacing 4", 4.5", 5" 5.5" etc. You also need to measure the width of the wheel inside the bead area ( where the tire mounts). So you may be able to get a 15" X 6" 5 X 4.5" wheel that fits from a wrecking yard that will fit your trailer. Hope this helps Joe
