The R-Pod Hood River Edition came with ST235/75R15 tires and the closest thing we have is the 225/75R15 tires which will use the same wheels and have the same pilot diameter of 3.19 inches.

The Trailer Wheel Center Cap, Stainless Steel, 3.19" Pilot Size # LHCS102-SI60C will be the correct size and is my recommendation. I've attached a couple videos to assist.
