Hub Centric Ring Size?

My first set of rims from tirerack came with them but my newest rims didn't.

I ran a season without the centering rings and had a little vibration and figured before I put them back on for the summer to get a set.

Does anyone know what size (in millimeters) I need?

My rims are listed below for what they'd be used with.

thanks Red, I saw that site yesterday, but they don't list the size

I was also looking at getting the metal ones instead of the plastic or polycarbon ones

Jamie, if you do find the correct size, I'd like to know. I want to get some metal ones. I've really chewed up my plastic ones from installing my drag radials/stock wheels (when going to the track) and rotating my directional tires.

"If you have installed aftermarket wheels on your vehicle and are experiencing a vibration, you may need the hub rings. The hub bore of most aftermarket wheels will be larger than the hub of the vehicle for universal fit. The ring will actually center the wheel on the hub of the vehicle rather than by the lug nuts or bolts. This will cause the wheel to run true on the hub of the vehicle"

perhaps that is why I have more vibration... or could be lower profile and directional tread? or combination of all 3

I ended up getting these from Discount Tire Direct for $15 shipped (still don't know what the size is)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=42614

All the auctions for these are basically the same, you just have to furnish the make/model of your car and the brand of rims that you have when you make the purchase. I emailed them and they said they have them for my car & rim application.

Rick, If they fit I'll let you know

Got my rings the other day from the link above on eBay ($15 shipped). Fast shipping and they fit perfect in case anyone needs to get a set.

The numbers listed on the rings are "73 x 64.15" & "HCR 107M-4"

*************************************************

Just a little followup on these hub centric rings I ordered a few weeks ago

Put my rims back on over the weekend and have been driving on them for 5 days now.

Absolutely NO vibration anymore while driving at any speeds.

I'm convinced these solved my vibration problem when I had the rims on last season.

For those of you who have aftermarket rims that didn't come with a set of these, I recommend getting a set......a good $15 investment

Mine were through the Discount Tire Direct eBay auction and they wanted to know what make/model/yr of the car and the what aftermarket rim company.


Shipping took about 3 days from the end of my auction.

also, when you installed it did you install them in the wheel itself or on the hub? My old set for my C2's went on the hub

Mine were shipped UPS (free).
The day I got my tracking # they showed up.



I slipped mine over the hub.

A couple had to be tapped on because of a little rust on the hub.
