cobra center caps that fit these rims?

I have a set of cobra replica rims. They are eagle alloys...style 168. From what I measure it look like a 2.5" center cap. Want to take out or cover the eagle alloy caps with something like cobra r,svt or pony caps. Do any of these come in 2.5"?

Cap covers

I have same wheels as you. I found a picture of a cobra center cap on the net and printed it. Took a exact outside to outside measurement of the eagle cap and went to Autographics and had them make a sticker that fit right over the eagle cap. Installed it, added 2 coats of clear coat and they look good. I believe the caps are 2 9/16 or 2 5/8. Make sure you measure cause you dont want to be too small.

Cost me around $20 for ten decals. Order extra, cause you will probably screw up the first one putting it on. Once you get the hang of it, its easy.

One more tip if you decide to go the sticker route. Before you install the sticker on the cap, use a hair dryer to heat both slightly. This will allow you to smooth them out and get rid of any wrinkles.
