Double check the bolt hole circle, 3 1/8" sounds like an odd size but, it's very close to 2 13/16"...

FYI: Bolt hole circle is measured from centre to centre of the stud holes, diagonally across the centre of the rim.

I mentioned that because you may have measured from outside to outside; if you subtract the width of one stud hole (5/16") from your measurement, you end up with 2 13/16" :)

You need one of these & one of these
