Another kick in the Lugnuts

1968 C10 stepside shortbed. So my project has been going on for nearly 2 yrs now. I bought 5 new wheels from Summit Racing : 15 x 8 steel. Got new rubber and everything is looking good. So with the original looking 15 inch wheels I go on Ebay and find 1968 dog dish hub caps. I'm thinking this is really coming together. I'm embarrassed to say how much I paid for the 4 hub caps. I go to put them on and they are slightly larger than the ring on the steel wheels. Hubcaps are too big. Grrrrrr. I haven't taken a tape measure to them but I think the dog dish are 10 inch in diameter. Don't know about the wheels. Anyone know of a simple fix or a "traditonal" looking hub cap that might work? I realize I should be measuring the wheel before I post this but I just got in from the garage and had to vent. Sometimes it feels like one step forward and two steps back.
