google "carlisle" for the closest dealer- check the black rock collection! personally I would just find rims that you like or match your tow vehicle and fab some hubs to fit,that way you can run anything "you like" ,not what somebody makes specifically for a trailer!

You have to be careful with some car rims because a lot of trailers cannot handle an offset rim. I have dealt with these guys in Milton before at www.cerka.ca for trailer stuff including a spare tire rim and mounting bracket for my trialer. since Dok got out of the trailer business and abandoned me to my own devices I found these folks helpful :)

ditto that Dub

I used Cerka for my trailer rebuild and they were great to deal with. Superfast fabrication of my custom axle and hubs as well as very knowledgable staff and tons of parts for every kind of trailer.

The cerka guys are good to deal with for generic parts. I'm working on getting back into the trailer parts business...because there seems to be a need (mostly I feel bad for dubber). Shivers is right about Carlisle...but if you want something truly custom you can use aftermarket truck/rwd car (some) wheels..like dubber mentioned the offset on most car wheels isn't right on a trailer.

One thing I forgot when choosing cool rims is how much wider they will be! I was going to run the same rims as I have on the magnum, but the trailer won't fit through the shop door with them on,so back to the drawing board!
