Needed a trailer for work. Bought one off Fleabay so obviously
its a bucket of shite but...........................
There is no spare wheel. How do i determine which type of wheel
it is and the manufacturer?
It is an old car type axle which still has the diff in! Hopfully
remove that today but do need a spare wheel
Any help?

If you do not have access to the type of bloke who'll take one
look and say, 'That's off a such and such.', you are limited to
measuring PCD, offset, rolling dia, etc., and scrapyard
comparison.

we seem to have loads of [ the type of bloke who'll take one
look and say, 'That's off a such and such.' ] :-?
and you say a spare wheel ? - that implies it already has some -
post pics of them too :smilewide:
hope that helps ............................................

I find if you buy a trailer with pink wheels and flower stickers
on it, nobody pinches it!

Some pimple faced adolescent, furiously working the unemployed
with one hand whilst banging his keyboard with the other, will
probably accuse me of being insufficiently mature to respond
but....
The five stud rim (oh Christ the words 'stud' and 'rim' get them
really overheated) combined with the lack of bumps for nave
plates indicates to me that it probably came from a light
commercial of some description. I'm not entirely sure that those
narrow springs were original to that axle. The stepped swinging
shackle (at least I think it is but it's a little unclear) rings
a Vauxhall GM bell.
I still think your best bet would be to take your wheel to a
scrapyard to play mix and match.
