Simplicity Hubcaps (Baby Moons)

Hi all. I have just got a 1990 Simplicity GTH lawn tractor from my father-in-law that has the 12" rear rim size. After measuring the second lip of the rim it is 10". So does this mean a set of 10" baby moon hubcaps is what I need? Just asking as this looks like where the inside clips of the caps would have to fit. I have attached a couple of pictures as to see the rear rims... I appreciate any opinions. I have a chance to but a pair of 10" Simplicity OEM #1690181 hubcaps (moons) for this tractor. Thanks in advance for any replies.......

Hello again after going out to the garage after a little thought here this is what I got. My rear tire size is 23X10.50 so is this a 10" or a 12" rim?? I should already know this but I've always owned Snappers and am new to these larger rims... Thanks again for the help... Big dummy from West Virginia (LOL)....

If your TIRE size reads out 23 x ** x ** then you have a GARDEN TRACTOR with 23inch wheels !

for instance : a 23 x 10.50 x 12 tire ... fits a 23 inch high tire which is 10 1/2 inches wide that fits a wheel 12 inches in diameter
