Bolt Circle Centerline to Non-Circles .idw

I have a ratchet plate idw that I've drawn and dimensioned, but I would like to insert two bolt circles to the two diameter dimensions that appear to be pointing at nothing. The circular pattern is not made up of circles so I haven't been able to use the Centered Pattern command in the centerline section. I'm using Inventor 2013.

I would like to mention that after creating the circles, I had some trouble formatting them to centerline, until I realized this option was under the right click menu in properties. Thank you

The other method to change line styles is while you are in the sketch, change to the Annotate tab and select the approriate layer in the Format panel.
