This seems to be the exact set-up I have on my utility trailer. Is the rim 5 inches wide? Thank you..

Without actually walking outside to measure the width, I would say it is at least 5 inches wide. It is a good sized tire.

The 4.5 should be sufficient. When you pull the trailer up on the tireaide, the other axle rises to the same height. The only reason I can see for having another inch is if the fender wraps down over the tire pretty far, making it hard to get the tire out from under it.

Dara, The original spare tire on my 2014 Wrangler Sahara Unlimited is a P255/70R-18. The width of the tire depends on how you measure it but this one is just under 8 inches wide when you measure just the tread width and almost exactly 10 inches wide overall including the bulge of the sidewalls. I originally purchased the Allen 3-Bike rack (not the premium) and was disappointed to find that it didn't fit the tire at all. After calling the manufacturer and finding that the "Premier" version of the rack was intended for wider tires, I returned the one I had purchased and bought the premier. The good news for me was that the Premier fit my tire absolutely perfectly. I even have to work a bit to get in over my tire but it fits so good that I can tell when it is on correctly when it sort of snaps into place. But the bad news I am afraid, if your tire really is 12 inches wide, (big tire) either the tread width or overall width, is that this rack is not going to fit your tire. From the research I did before I bought my rack, and if you have a receiver trailer hitch, it to get one of the trailer hitch type racks and a receiver extension to get the rack out behind your tire. Hope this helps.

Mine are around 58" wide I bought them for my RV camper which is a dual axel one and they fit great.

If it has 5 lugs on 4.5" Center. On small trailers it t had 5 lug nuts most of the time they are 4.5 centers...but check your owners manual, or ask a tire shop.

HelloWhat I did...I google "trailer tire" and compared the answer with the tire I had at home. I hope this is helpful.

Should fit just fine if the size matches... but make sure your wheel wells on the trailer will accommodate a wider tire...

Thanks all. Yes thin rim and wide dimension is what I am looking for. Appreciate the feedback.

outside to outside of bearning is 5". if the tire size is the same, then make the hub work by adding washers to make it wider, or cut the hub to make it shorter to make it work. ---- mine are working great for me so far

Yes, this is a DOT approved and recommended rim width for that tire size. Wheels are in stock! Thanks

I measured and it's 17" between the pivot point and the dropouts. Cutting it close but should be ok. As for the trailer itself; I've pulled it up the local mountain toll road with my hybrid and fire road with my mountain bike. Had 35 pounds in it with the hybrid. Had to drop to the granny gear a couple of times, but it's not a deal-breaker. Rides nice and smooth over fairly rough dirt, too.Bottom line - buy it. It's well worth the ninety bucks.

Offhand I would think that your rig (tires/suspension) may have too much play to allow this to work. I took a chance ordering mine, and it worked, but my trailer is much smaller than yours. Perhaps ask a fellow camper to 'test drive' theirs, or ask a dealer to try it out first before you spend the money.

It will not work well if the Sandpiper is concave. also, if it has a rounded back the standoff mounds will not fit flat on the trailer. This is mainly designed to fit a straight backed trailer or motor coach. I don't think it works well for a fifth wheel, at least it doesn't on my Keystone Everest. I'll never climb up it because I made it fit with the original standoffs and I couldn't get one to fit so I'm using it only to put the laundry rack on

Thank you for your inquiry. No, you cannot mount this tire on a 5" wide rim. It must pair with a 6" wide rim.
