2.25" IIRC. However, the caps are of a different depth than the other center caps from the 1997 GS-R/LS, the 1998-00 GS-R, and the 1999-00 Si wheels. Those three have interchangeable caps as they're all physically the same size.

If you want an H cap that's exactly the same as the 1994-95 GS-R wheel A cap you'll have to get one that's meant for a 1996 Civic optional accessory wheel. I lost the 1996 Civic accessory brochure but the wheel is shown in the brochure. I also lost my order form when I ordered a set of four caps back in 1996. The H cap itself has no part number on it so I don't know what that part number is.

Another alternative is to get a vinyl decal shop to make a center cap decal that will fit over the A cap. Use a silver or gray base decal cut to a circular piece that's 2.25" in diameter. The shop will then have to make a black Honda "H" logo that's centered on that circular piece. The size of the H should be that the edges of all four points of the H will touch the edge of an imaginary circle that's 2" in diameter.
