You can use the Phoenix USA QuickTrim Hub Cover # QT545C with the HWT Aluminum Hi-Spec Series S5 Trailer Wheel # AM22323HWTB.

This hub cover is designed to snap onto wheels that have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern and 1/2" lug nuts, both of which the HWT wheel uses.

I have added links to video reviews of the wheel and hub cover for you to take a look at.

Most people run a standard style center cap with the HWT Wheel part #AM22323HWTB you referenced like in the picture I attached. For a center cap that would fit that wheel the part #319EZ would be a great option.

On a 13 x 4-1/2 inch wheel such as #AM20202, you can use tire size 175/80-13 or size 185/80-13. I have included links to the tires we have in each of these sizes. I have also included a link to our help article on trailer tires for you to view.

Answer 6

The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13…

The three most common lug stud sizes for a trailer are 1/2"-20, 9/16"-18, and 5/8"-18. In order to make sure you get the correct lug nuts you need to measure the lug studs on the trailer now as we have no way to look this up for…

You can add larger wheels and tires to a trailer as long as you have enough room for the larger size. The main clearance issues we find when putting larger tires and wheels on a trailer is from the top of the tire to the fender and from the inside…

Answer 11

The two sizes you mentioned are pretty similar and fit many of the same 15 inch wheels. The 205/75-15 fits rim widths of 5 inch to 6-1/2 inch whereas the 225/75-15 fits widths that are 5 inch to 6 inch. The 205 is 27.1 inches tall and the 225 is 28.4…
