Can anyone with an IBTanked 22mm tank tell me how thick the o-rings are? 2mm? 3mm? etc

Been looking at the 22mm IBTank tanks for my new RED Provari Mini coming in the mail, but they only sell the red o-rings in 19mm size. I was thinking I could get the 22mm standard with stainless steel caps - actually wanting the black anodized, but they are out of stock - and black o-rings (the only color option they have), then possibly purchase red o-rings somewhere else ...like these. The ID of the 22mm tank is (according to their website) 17mm, I'm figuring an 18mm OD o-ring should fit pretty snugly, just need the thickness to guarantee clearance. I'm guessing they are 2mm, but might be 3mm ...dunno.

I'm REALLY wanting to do a black-capped 22mm tank with red o-rings and a stainless drip tip - manly man colors to go with my blood stick! I don't really like IBTs red anodized caps ...too 'pinkish' for my tastes.

When I ordered my 22mm IBTanked's, I got the anodized aluminum caps in red, black, blue, green, and hot pink (more of a purple IMO). I actually talked to OCD on the phone after my order, for some reason the online order went thru twice and he kindly called me to make sure that it was a mistake. I asked about the colored o-rings being offered on the website as an accessory. He said that the 19mm and 22mm tanks are close enough in diameter size that the colored o-rings should work on both tanks. I haven't had the opportunity to make the switch to check, but that info is out there.

BTW, the red anodized caps are truly red, not pinkish at all. :p
