bubble weather stripping for a Hurd window

Question

Hi.  My weatherstripping for Hurd windows appears to be like the bubble seal you have, but the diameter of the bubble is more like 3/16" (old and hard to tell:-)  Is there a reason I couldn't use the 5/16"?

There is a chance you old weatherstripping has shrunk a bit over the years so the larger diameter of the 58-053 may be a good fit. If the 58-053 was too large, you may have trouble closing your window.
