7 1/4 Inch id here

If you can't find a set on here, try a camper / boat trailer shop, some vintage trailers had 12 or 13 inch wheels, or try Tow Car supplier. Ran small moons on the Dolly Wheels.

I have 38K rears also. 7.5" caps are just a shade too small and 8's are way too big. I made two tiny, parallel cuts in the curled lip of my 7.5's with a tree limb pruner (a hacksaw would probably work ;)), bent the 'tab' a bit to go over and lock on the odd stud. They haven't fallen off or shifted yet. Hope this helps! :SMOKIE-LFT:

I just put some 7.25 on the rw got them at the truck stop Iowa 80 chrome shop they are online iowa80.com they were 5 bucks each I pushed them on to mark where they were catching and used a small ball peen on the top of the tire to flatten the lip a little I guess I could buy an install tool but for what they sell for I can dent a half dozen caps
