Default Center cap o-ring

I'm looking for the rubber o-ring that goes on the center cap of this wheel. I do not know the manufacturer. The groove that it fits in is 1/16th" wide and about the same depth and is 2-5/8" I.D. I've looked at hardware stores, discount tire.etc... anyone know where I can get one?

Pool/Spa stores that service pumps & stuff normally has larger sized 0-rings and should have something that will work. Lowe's has some really large ones and I would hunt through the plumbing supplies for an item that uses a large size o-ring. I take it the o-ring holds the center cap in place? If so you might just glue smaller sections of o-rings in the proper matching locations in the wheel center. Anyway good hunting and good luck.

Thanks and you are correct, the o-ring holds the center cap on

They look like I forged. Call and ask for some of theirs. I have some in the garage somewhere and they sound about right.
