There is a reason the rim off of your Venture would
not fit on the Lumina..... They are two totally different
wheels, rims, brake assemblies and hubs.
As for the idea of the horizon rims and being disc
or drum brakes, the horizon came with front disc and
rear drums. You can rotate the tires front to back
without a problem. Look for an old Horizon or Plymouth
Omni and they should work on the trailer.

There is a little more to it than that ... the offset
can be the same,
but there not be clearance for some parts. Example;
I have a Venture
'minivan' and our daughter drives a Lumina ... the
offset and bolt
pattern are the same, but even with both having disc
brakes, I cannot
put my Venture wheels on her Lumina ... parts interfere
with one
another. She had a flat, and I was going to do that
to drive it to te
tire store ...

How does the rim know whether it's being stopped by
a disk or drum
brake?
Or is this just your way of pointing out that the
offsets may be
different?
