Tire size is 225/75-R15 but don't have a spare rim. Anyone know the bolt spacing for a 2007 Raptor 3712TS. I know the rim is supposed to be a 15x6.

What is the bolt pattern, 5,6, or 8 lug. I looked up the specs and was shocked to see this is a 12K lb RV with 15" wheels and D rated tires. I assume since they are a 15" D rated that they are a 6 lug. I've never seen an 8 lug 15" trailer wheel and most 5 lugs come on B or C rated. If they are 6, the only bolt pattern I am aware of is a 6 x 5.5". One thing you also need to check is the hub diameter. Although I am not aware of differences on the 6 lug wheels, I know other bolt patterns have different hub diameter openings.

The bolt pattern on a 6 hole wheel should be 6x5.5 if I remember correctly. I think they are the same as the Chevy 6 hole wheels. You should be able to buy a white spoke wheel pretty cheap. Here is one

They are 6/5.5 bolt pattern. It is the same as the older Chevy wheels which will fit SOME applications. Trailer wheels are 0 offset, Chevy wheels are not. So some of the Chevy wheels will hit the hub/suspension/wheel wells on many (most) trailers. It's better to stick with 0 offset wheels to prevent clearance problems.

What wheel did you go with on your raptor Leom??
Have you changed tires or what's doing good for you?

Make sure to follow the 0 offset. The offset assures that the weight is centered over the wheel bearings. If offset is changed bearing damage can an will occur.
