Locating Correct Replacement Center Cap for 15 Inch Wheel with 6 Lugs

Question

Question:

The chrome center hubs on this trailer is getting rusty and ugly. I measured it at 4.5inch diameter and 4.5inch long. I see that you have a 4.25inch diameter. Do you also have a 4.5inch diameter or maybe I didnt measure it accurately? The wheels are 6 lug 15inch size. Would the stainless steel hold up better than the chrome?

In order to select the correct replacement center cap for your wheels, I recommend verifying the pilot hole diameter on your existing trailer wheels. The Lionshead Trailer Wheel Center Cap # LHCS108-SI60C is the closest cap we have available to the dimensions you provided, as it is designed for 6-lug wheels with a 4-1/4 inch pilot hole diameter and it measures 4-1/2 inches in length.

The stainless steel construction on this cap will definitely hold up better than your chrome sets, as stainless steel is resistant to rust and corrosion. I have attached a short video demonstration on this product that you can also take a look at.
