Baby Moons for new Andy wheels

Where can I purchase chrome Baby Moons to fit new 15’ rims from Andy?

I purchased two of Andy’s Part # 11147 Wheel, 2600 pounds, 6x15x5.5 Bolt Circle. (nice)

These wheels have 3 nubs to mount hubcap over, not the original clips type.

I tried Mr Gasket #4580 10 1/8”id chromed steel baby moons.
They won’t stretch to fit over third lug.

Any ideas?

I guess you will have to ask Andy to be sure what will fit, but, the original caps were also used on several trucks and other vehicles of that vintage. I'm pretty sure Chevy and maybe Jeep, maybe others. They come up fairly regularly on ebay. You can also get new baby moons on ebay.
