HUB CENTRIC
Definition: A wheel that is centered or located on the hub by a machined center hole-as opposed to "lug centered" wheels that are located by the position of the lug nuts alone.

Ok one more question, does the wheel have a plastic ring in it? Is it black? If so take that fugger off and bolt that chit on!

yeah, the bore and rings should be the same on all four wheels. There's no good reason to have it any other way.

in 99% positive i don't use hub rings in the front.. i know i use them in the rear because they came with my wheels and i had to swap them out.

are these the first asanti wheels done for a non-brembo g35?

Sundeviljay - which Asanti's do you have? Did you have any problems fitting them around your hub/bore ring or where they drilled the correct size to begin with?

send them back! They did the same thing to me. I had to reorder the front ones a second time because they would not clear the brembos.

Ill ask again, do the front have black plastic hub rings? If so have you tried to pull them off and test fit the wheel?

update

Ok to all that answered. Here is the outcome. Took them back and had the bore hole widened to the correct diameter they should have been which was 66.1 (thanks Kenchan). RIms fit on without a problem.

Sundeviljay - what is the lip on your front wheels? Is it 1.5 inches?

I'll post pics of the ride when I get a chance to upload them.
