Wheels for a PT- 60

I am building a PT-60 and trying to find wheels for a 3/16 inch landing gear. DUmbro wheels are 5/32. The hubs do not have much available left to drill out. Does anybody have any suggestions ???
Thanks, Patrick..

You will probably be using 2.5 to 3.5 inch wheels on that plane, depending on what kind of surface you will be flying from. I have never seen wheels in that size range that did not have enough material to safely remove 1/32" of material from the center of the hub. Go for it.
