I got a similar leather wrap years ago that was slightly too big in the 
dimension you're talking about . it makes a small ridge on the inside of 
the wheel that i don't find objectionable.  I've been wondering about 
getting some of that thin foam tape that I've seen on bike handlebars and 
wrapping the wheel with that, then using the leather cover over.  Would 
this make the outside Diameter too big?
