hubcentric ring need or not

hey guys,

i just mounted my new wheels, i bought a set of PRIVAT PROFIL wheels 19" staggered.

the wheels where mounted and sit well.. the ride is great but i dont recall ever having any hubcentric rings put on. do i need these for these wheels?

if you get a shimy in the front wheels at high speeds, you need them ask the company if the wheels are hubcentric.

They are not a "need" but can help with vibrations.

its a need, unless you like the idea of breaking your wheel studs. without the hubcentric ring all the pressure from car is riding on the wheel studs and not the hub. better safe than sorry. they're cheap anyway (~$20)
