Hi everyone,
This is for all the people that put aftermarket rims, did you guys have to put hubcentric rings or not.

Thank you in advance,

 

I did on mine. Many aftermarket wheels require them for proper fitment.

 

Unless the wheel perfectly fits the center flange absolutely yes. You will want to find them made out of metal, hopefully aluminum. Avoid the plastic ones as brake head and destroy them.

 

Mine came with hub rings.

 

I think almost all Volk Racing wheels come with them.
I know mine did.

 

Where can one find aluminum ones?

 

I dont think they make them in alum...
I got mine today from iforged and they are plastic

 

Volks do not come with hub centric rings. You can buy it from them though.

 

Here ya go. My friend recommended these after he noticed some warping to his front plastic ones that came with his Volks after a weekend at the track. I switched my out after I saw his warped rings. Just make sure you brush some anti-seize on the rings before you install them on the wheels and hubs unless you want them on there for good. Hope that helped.

my new SSR came w/ aluminum hub rings that are threaded.. they twist into back of rim kinda like a nice watch back.lol...pimp****.eh

aywho. u need em.. even if they are the plastic ones

 

If a wheel is custom made it may not need rings. HRE makes their wheels to fit exacting specs of the car. I heardh iForged will do so if requested. For manufacturers to make wheels custom for every car would increase the cost. SO they make wheels to fit many cars and all they need to complete the fitment is that hubcentric ring. I've used aftermarket wheels about 15 years and have no problem with the rings.

 

maya wheels come with exact specs too fit perfect
no ring no vibration
over 100 no vibration

 

Thanks for the link. Got them today and installed them. Definately help with the vibration I had. My rear's didn't need them, but my fronts did.

Tip for people using aluminum rings, make sure you put anti-sieze grease. Or else the heat will make the rings stick to your hub and the dealer or whoever will have a difficult time changing your rotors.

 

thanx for answering my question 6969, I was going to ask if Maidos came with them as I'm getting the 20" RT5 Graphites.

 

does anyone know if the nismo LMGT4s need hub rings? thanks
