meant to add......

our Rpod has the big wheels and the lug nuts (Hood River edition) that a my normal lugnut wrench with 19 and 21 mm setting doesn't quite work. 19 is too small and 21 is too large. Went to an auto store to see if they had a 20 mm and they did not. Any suggestions on how to get a snug fit or where to go to get the right size. Also, what should the normal tire pressure be for these big tires? Thanks for any help you can provide.

Cold tire pressure should be listed on tire. Fill to that pressure - COLD.

I think the lug nut is 11/16 just like the 4 corner jacks

11/16 would be around 17-1/2 mm. Our stabilizers use 3/4", and I remember using the 3/4" socket on the spare tire nuts. IDNR what I used on the lug nuts.

Gluyguy you are right went over to the pod to check lug nuts 3/4 but my jacks are 11/16 that's the largest socket in the set I use with camper and my drill.more then likely different jacks. Let no two pods be the same.

We measure the same as GlueGuy, 3/4" on both stabilizers and lug nuts. But then again our pod dates back to 2011.
