Default Boat rims

I'm wondering if anyone would know which truck/car rim fit boat trails?
I want a spare, but don't want to spend big bucks for a boat rims, looking for a truck/car rim with the same bolt pattern. Any other ideals for a spare rim for my boat? 14" rim

go measure them... usually they are 5 lug wheels... 5x4.5" size.. but i would measure to be sure...

they measure from center to center of lugs skipping one lug (kinda like the order you tighten em in.)....

If they do turn out to be 5x4.5 Jeep Wrangler, Cherokee, Ford Ranger wheels are all options.

Measure your lug pattern, or do some research on your trailer, to find your bolt pattern. It's probably 5 on 4.5.....that's 5 lug, 4.5" measurement, which is pretty much the industry standard.




Then look at some places online, like etrailer.com or C and O Marine to find a wheel and tire you like.
