Try to see if you can find some heat shrink tubing with extra shrink ratio so you can use a bigger one that fits and still have the result you desire.

For all those wondering, extra shrink ratio is real - it's not just a made up thing, no judgements should be passed, some things just shrink more than others and that's a fact of nature.
