If you don't find them, get 0.20"/0.5mm oversize and file the endgaps.

If I remember right you want the endgap to be about a thousandth of the
circumference or in your case about 0.011.

Be SURE the endgaps are correct because if they are too small the rings could
seize in the cylinder when they get hot.
