I cannot recommend using a vehicle wheel in place of a trailer wheel for any period of time. Passenger vehicle wheels are not manufactured the same as trailer wheels and not made to handle loads like trailer wheels.

To determine which wheel you will need, you will have to measure the bolt pattern of your Nomad trailer (see FAQ). You will also need to measure the diameter of the wheel and the correct replacement tire size.
