Searching for 10/285 truck wheels or 10/335 truck wheels? Both are common 10-stud truck wheel configurations, but they are not the same fitment.
The difference is the PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter). A 10/285 wheel has 10 mounting holes positioned on a 285 mm pitch circle, while a 10/335 wheel has 10 mounting holes positioned on a 335 mm pitch circle.
Mesh Wheels and Accessories’ range includes 22.5-inch truck wheels in both 10/285 and 10/335 configurations, with steel and alloy options across steer, drive and trailer applications.
This guide explains the difference between 10/285 and 10/335 truck wheels and what to check when selecting a replacement.
What Does 10/285 Mean on a Truck Wheel?
A 10/285 truck wheel has:
- 10 mounting holes
- A 285 mm Pitch Circle Diameter (PCD)
The first number refers to the number of mounting holes. The second number is the diameter, in millimetres, of the imaginary circle passing through the centre of those holes.
Within the Mesh range, 10/285 is used across several 22.5-inch truck wheel sizes and is commonly associated with American truck applications.
The PCD alone does not confirm fitment. Wheel width, centre bore, offset, mounting details and intended application must also be checked.
What Does 10/335 Mean on a Truck Wheel?
A 10/335 truck wheel also has 10 mounting holes, but they are positioned on a larger 335 mm Pitch Circle Diameter.
In simple terms:
10/285 = 10 mounting holes on a 285 mm PCD
10/335 = 10 mounting holes on a 335 mm PCD
Mesh offers 10/335 wheels across multiple 22.5-inch sizes, including steel and alloy options.
10/335 is commonly associated with European and Japanese truck applications. Always confirm the complete wheel specification for the individual vehicle rather than selecting a wheel based on the truck manufacturer alone.
10/285 vs 10/335 Truck Wheels
| Feature | 10/285 Truck Wheel | 10/335 Truck Wheel |
|---|---|---|
| Mounting holes | 10 | 10 |
| PCD | 285 mm | 335 mm |
| Common association | American truck applications | European and Japanese truck applications |
| Available in 22.5-inch wheels | Yes | Yes |
| Interchangeable | No | No |
Although both configurations use 10 mounting holes, the difference in PCD means the mounting holes are positioned differently.
A wheel should therefore never be identified simply as a 10-stud truck wheel without checking the PCD.
Are 10/285 and 10/335 Truck Wheels Interchangeable?
No. A 10/285 wheel cannot be treated as a direct replacement for a 10/335 wheel, or vice versa.
The two bolt circles have different diameters, so the mounting-hole positions do not match.
When replacing a truck wheel, confirm the complete specification rather than relying on the number of studs or wheel diameter.
What 10/285 Truck Wheel Sizes Does Mesh Offer?
Mesh Wheels and Accessories’ 10/285 range includes several 22.5-inch truck wheel configurations.
These include:
- 8.25 × 22.5 10/285 truck wheels
- 9.00 × 22.5 10/285 truck wheels
- 11.75 × 22.5 10/285 truck wheels
Depending on the size and application, the range includes steel and alloy options with finishes such as silver, white, chrome, machined and polished.
There are also options intended for steer, drive and trailer applications.
Availability and specifications should be confirmed before ordering.
What 10/335 Truck Wheel Sizes Does Mesh Offer?
Mesh also carries 22.5-inch 10/335 truck wheels across several widths, including:
- 8.25 × 22.5 10/335 truck wheels
- 9.00 × 22.5 10/335 truck wheels
- 11.75 × 22.5 10/335 truck wheels
Depending on the wheel, options include silver steel, chrome steel, machined alloy, polished alloy and full chrome alloy finishes.
The range also includes wheels for different axle positions and offset requirements.
Matching the PCD is only the first step. The complete wheel specification must suit the intended application.
8.25, 9.00 or 11.75 × 22.5: Does Wheel Width Matter?
Yes. Two wheels can both have a 22.5-inch diameter and the same PCD while still being different products.
For example:
8.25 × 22.5 describes a nominal wheel width of 8.25 inches and a 22.5-inch diameter.
9.00 × 22.5 describes a nominal width of 9.00 inches and a 22.5-inch diameter.
11.75 × 22.5 describes a nominal width of 11.75 inches and a 22.5-inch diameter.
Wheel width must suit the tyre, vehicle and intended application. Do not assume that every 22.5-inch truck wheel with the correct PCD is interchangeable.
American vs European and Japanese Truck Wheels
The Mesh range groups 10/285 PCD with American applications and 10/335 PCD with European and Japanese applications.
This can be useful when beginning a wheel search, but it should not be used as the only method of identifying a replacement.
Individual trucks can have different wheel and hub specifications depending on model, axle, configuration and previous modifications.
Always identify the actual wheel and hub requirements before ordering.
Steel vs Alloy 10-Stud Truck Wheels
Both 10/285 and 10/335 configurations are available across different steel and alloy truck wheel options within the Mesh range.
Steel Truck Wheels
Steel wheels are widely used across commercial truck and trailer applications.
Depending on the specification, Mesh offers finishes including:
- Silver steel
- White steel
- Chrome steel
Alloy Truck Wheels
Mesh also carries a range of alloy truck wheels, including options with:
- Machined finishes
- Polished finishes
- Polished inside or both sides
- Full chrome finishes
Material and finish should be considered alongside the required dimensions, PCD, offset, load rating and application.
Steer, Drive and Trailer Wheel Applications
Not every wheel with the correct PCD and diameter is intended for the same position on a truck or trailer.
The Mesh range includes wheels specified for steer, drive and trailer applications.
When choosing a replacement, check whether the wheel is intended for:
- Steer axle use
- Drive axle use
- Trailer use
- Single or dual configurations, where applicable
Offset and other dimensional requirements may also vary between applications.
How Do I Know If I Need 10/285 or 10/335?
Start with the specification of the existing wheel and the vehicle or hub requirements.
Check:
- Number of mounting holes
- PCD
- Wheel diameter
- Wheel width
- Centre bore
- Offset
- Stud-hole specification
- Wheel material
- Load rating
- Intended axle position
Do not rely solely on appearance or the fact that a wheel has 10 mounting holes.
If the specification cannot be confidently identified, have the fitment checked by a qualified professional before ordering.
Common Truck Wheel Fitment Mistakes
Avoid these assumptions when comparing 10/285 and 10/335 truck wheels:
- All 10-stud truck wheels have the same PCD.
- All 22.5-inch truck wheels are interchangeable.
- Truck make alone determines the correct PCD.
- Matching the PCD guarantees complete wheel compatibility.
- Steer, drive and trailer wheels can always be used interchangeably.
- A similar-looking truck wheel is necessarily the same specification.
Correct wheel selection requires the complete specification to be checked.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 10/285 and 10/335 truck wheels?
Both have 10 mounting holes, but their Pitch Circle Diameters are different. A 10/285 wheel uses a 285 mm PCD, while a 10/335 wheel uses a 335 mm PCD.
Are 10/285 and 10/335 wheels interchangeable?
No. The mounting holes are positioned on different diameter circles, so the two configurations are not directly interchangeable.
What does PCD mean on a truck wheel?
PCD stands for Pitch Circle Diameter. It describes the diameter of the imaginary circle passing through the centres of the wheel's mounting holes.
Are 10/285 truck wheels American?
10/285 is commonly associated with American truck applications in the Mesh range. The actual vehicle and hub specifications should always be checked before ordering.
Are 10/335 truck wheels European or Japanese?
10/335 is commonly associated with European and Japanese truck applications. However, vehicle make alone should not be used to confirm wheel fitment.
