hub centric rings

just wondering if anyone is running any and where did you get it from? also, is there a reason I should get one made over a certain material over another? for ex. aluminum over poly/plastic? any input will be helpful

I have centering rings in all 3 sets of aftermarket wheels I bought from Tire Rack. The older ones were plastic and eventually broke. I bought new aluminum rings from TR.

I have a set of polycarbonate rings I bought off ebay a year ago for $6. They haven't degraded one bit in a year and actually still look new. I'd heard the aluminum rings can make noise from time to time.

When I was looking for mine, my local Discount not only didn't sell any but didn't even know what I was talking about. And that was the store manager.
