Hubcentric rings for volks?

Do I need hubcentric rings for my volk sf-winnings? If so where can I purchase them?

I bought the car with the volks and noticed that i get vibrations at speeds. The wheels were recently balanced, so took off one of the wheels and didn't see any hubcentric rings.

You need the rings man. I got them with my WORK VSXX but paid for them - about $100 for all 4.

Wheel shop that balanced the tire probably wasn't paying attention, and lost the rings. Happened to me before with a previous car... That's why I now put my car on jackstands at home, and roll the wheels into the shop when I need new tires... I'm done with lost rings, cross threaded studs, etc...

I found when I rolled my wheels in by hand, they were MUCH more cautious when it came to handling my wheels.

Thanks for the response guys. I just ordered a set from Creative Autoworks. Good guys to deal with.

AVS- I need to start doing that myself. Wheel shops around my area sucks. They are not careful with my wheels at all.
