lube plate size?

My 5er is currently not at home but the last time I towed it I noticed my lube plate is pretty much done. I need to order a new one but notice there's a 10" and 12" plate. I didn't measure my current plate before I left the trailer out there. Does it really matter that much what size to get?

    Either one will work. I would get the 12", just because it has more surface area to wear.

    The size of the lube plate is based off your hitch. You can get the correct size for the plate off your hitch brand. I never saw a big deal in the size of them though, maybe it is important.
