Lost a center hubcap

roy · 09-13-2016, 07:41 AM

2012 XT276 and I did look on cruisers website only to get a wheel provider but when o contacted them they quickly informed me they could not sell to general public. Referred me to some other vendor and they don't show any wheel resembling mine. I need the plastic center hub cap that covers lug nuts. Lost one along the way. These cheap China things have been a thorn in my side since day one.

Anyway to find out who the actual maker of my wheel is?

There is usually (but not always) a code stamped on the wheels. Alloy wheels will usually have ot on either the inner or outer face near the lug holes or inside the spokes of the wheel. Sometimes it could be molded into the inside of the plastic hubcap so you could pull one of the others and check. Can you post a photo? Maybe someone here has researched this already.

No close up pic on hand. Actually need two ones hanging on well but spins and always seems out of alignment with the wheel spokes. Ones totally disappeared. I will look later today for any identification on the wheels and remaining caps.

They are probably Sendel wheels. Very common in this industry.
It used to be tredit tire and wheel was the distributor, but I don't know if they still are.

Try these folks:

YEs, they are Sendel wheels.

I've bought a couple of the center caps off ebay.

They only go one ONE WAY or you will break off the little plastic tabs.

Hi Roy,
I have had good luck with Discount Tire in the past... They were able to come up with hard to find wheel covers for me a couple times; for cars though, not trailers, but worth a call...

Good luck and hope you find one...

I own a 2010 xt276. I l broke a hub cap trying to put it back on the rim after a blowout. I ordered one from this site (Customtrailerwheels.com) and it arrived today. The number is TO5 15 inch-5H. hope this helps.

Thanks a bunch! That is the one I need. Actually need two. Selling dealercand cruiser were no help of course.

Yes eagle I know they only go on one way. I've hated these things since day one. Dealer replaced all of them under warranty once when a few tabs broke off right off the bat. I usually spray soapy water on them push them on gently and they still break.

roy ~ yes, I broke one trying to reinstall it without looking first to line up the tab into the slot correctly. Later another one broke when removing it. The little plastic tabs on the back side broke off. They are pretty cheezzy and made of ABS plastic.
