It sounds like the 3-1/8" depth of Americana Trailer Wheel Center Cap w/ Plug - Chrome Plated - 3.33" Pilot # AM90195 is not enough to clear your bearing buddy that you have installed. We do not have any deeper center caps that match the specs of this center cap.
It is not recommended to install a wheel center cap over the bearing buddy. This would sort of defeat the purpose of the bearing buddy since it is conveniently made to be greased without removing the wheel, but you would actually need to remove the wheel to grease the hub if you have the center cap installed. I attached a demonstration video which shows how to use and install the bearing buddy.
