The hub cap hole should be measured, as it looks larger.

That looks like a rare 1928 Model AR wire wheel.

That is something I learned the hard way!

The one on the left is a 1928 Model AR wheel.

The were two styles of 21" Model A wire wheels. Early 1928 were the "AR" style and then for 1928 & 1928 the ribbed style

That Model A 28 -29 hubcap may be what I have and didn't want.

The hole is just large enough for a 1926 hub cap to drop right through it.

When I can get in the trailer again I will check the size of the hole. It looks like you said.
