12" plastic Hubcabs

[Hondov65]

I bought my John Deere X530 Garden Tractor in late March it's actually a mower but when you have $6,200 invested you can call it anything you want. I was going through the parts and accessory catalog and found something else I wanted. (previous purchases Sun Shade, Brush Guard, and osolating fan.) A set of hubcaps yellow plastic type 12" for the rear and 8" for the front. I was looking at the new catalog but John Deere tells me they are no longer available, however I was able to purchase the 8" part #M96337 through a company called Wingartz the 12" part#M114663 seems to be unobtainable. I just bougt this tractor/mower 6 months ago. I would think John Deere would have a good inventory on these plastic hubcaps. Anyone have a extra set they are willing to part with, or know of a source where I may obtain the OEM part?

Shipped from St. Joseph, MI delivery UPS Ground by end of day Thursday.
This is what I feel happened, John Deere stopped production of the plastic hub caps and starting manufacturing the expensive Chrome Type @ a C-Note a piece vs plastic @ 20.00 a piece. Plastic won't rust or chip and is flexabletherfor a longer life.
