I have 3 trailers with the "Mobile Home" Style wheels. One of them is an old John Deere Industrial Tilt Bed Trailer. The nice thing about this set up is that they are low profile and each tire will support more weight than regular tires their size. Here is what I have found works best to center them side to side when reinstalling them. I leave 2 of the 5 clamps on the wheel and "hang" the wheel on it. Back those 2 bolts off a turn or so. Put the other 3 on and screw in to hold the wheel in place. Just snug the bolts. Now spin the tire and watch the outside edge of the rim (I stick my finger out as a reference as it goes around). Tighten the bolts near the spot that sticks fathest out first and work your way around checking the side to side wobble as you go. If you are not making any progress, find the spot that is farthest in and back off the 2 or 3 bolts at that spot then start over. This type wheel and tire is higher pressure to carry lots of weight and they tend to bounce on trailers that are empty, light or not loaded. Good Luck!
