This may be totally unfeasable for you, but there is a place in Emory, TX called Hooten's. He makes hay rings by the hundreds. I have bought several of them for $57.00 each and they have served me for four years and do not show any wear at all. I even caught one in my rear tractor tire last year and rolled it about thirty minutes trying to get it out. Long story, but it looks and works just fine, a little bent, but it didn't come unwelded. You might call them at 903-473-8788. I don't think you would be disappointed with the quality. I am in no way associated with them, but they do have quality stuff he makes.
