I'm going to also assume the lens you have is a 58mm filter size from your measurement. 82mm and 58mm are standard filter sizes stocked everywhere. Others have already mentioned that Hassy lenses are a little different.
As for high-contrast filters, I think you need to define what you really want to do. Color filters can increase contrast of course depending on the situation but also change color relationships. Perhaps what you really need to do is increase your development time.
