Default camaro ss wheels on car hauler??

What do u guy think about camaro ss 10 spoke wheels on a car hauler? Will the wheels support the weight of a 4000lbs truck on the trailer? Just wanna make my tow rig look a little better than the steel wheels it came with.

Check the requirements for your axles - many trailer axles require 0 offset wheels or you will fry the bearings in short order.

...and I have no idea what the weight rating on the tires or wheels is, but you'll want their combined weight ratings to meet or exceed the weight capacities on your axles (3500lb axles should have 1750 lb or higher rated wheels and tires, etc). Also remember that trailer tires should always be run at the max air pressure regardless of how much weight you have on the trailer.
