What 17.5X6.75 Gives the Operator
Lightweight magnesium aluminum construction reduces unsprung mass and improves fuel efficiency
6.75 inch width provides stable contact with the tyre bead for secure mounting
225 mm bolt circle with 4 holes and 26 mm bolt hole size ensures compatibility with common truck wheel hubs
176 mm center hole fits standard axle shafts used in medium-duty trucks and buses
141 valve type allows for easy air pressure management and compatibility with standard valve caps
Application Scenarios
- Regional distribution fleets using medium-duty trucks on paved and lightly graded roads
- Bus operators maintaining rear axle wheels with consistent load handling and low maintenance
- Trailer manufacturers fitting durable, lightweight rims for long-haul and regional transport
Who It Is For
- Truck and bus importers sourcing rims for medium-duty vehicles in Europe, Africa, and Latin America
- Fleet operators replacing worn rims on rear axles and trailers with lightweight alternatives
- Distributors requiring a standard rim size with consistent bolt pattern and load rating for container consolidation
What It Is Meant To Fix
Heavy steel rims increasing fuel consumption and reducing vehicle efficiency
Inconsistent bolt patterns causing fitment issues during wheel replacement
Rims with low load capacity failing under repeated axle loading in commercial use
Poor bead seat stability leading to air leaks and tyre detachment during high-speed operation

How It Compares
- Compared with A standard steel rim in the same sizeLighter weight improves fuel economy and reduces wear on suspension components, but may have lower impact resistance
- Compared with A heavier aluminum rim with different bolt patternThis rim has a standard 225 mm PCD and 4-hole layout, improving compatibility with common truck hubs
- Compared with A rim with a different center hole size176 mm center hole ensures fitment on standard axle shafts, reducing the need for adapters
Getting the Most Out Of It
- Mount only on vehicles where the axle and hub match the 225 mm PCD and 4-bolt configuration
- Ensure the rim is properly torqued to the manufacturer's specification to prevent loosening
- Inspect the bead seat and valve area regularly for damage or corrosion
- Use compatible valve stems and caps to maintain air pressure and prevent leaks
