Rims finally delivered, but no lugs or hub rings

They finally showed up!!!! back in nj though. anyways there was no rays lugs or hub rings in the box. they did remember to send the center caps though. i knwo a couple of ppl have volks already so what i need to know is if i can use the oem lugs until they send the rays and if i should bother puttin them on without hub rings.

i cant drive all the way back to nj for no reason.

peace

I ran my newest rims last season without hubcentric rings and had a little wobble the whole time


got some metal ones off eBay for $10-12 and got them in about 2-3 days


not off-center one bit this year........get them


I can give you the link where I got mine when I get home from work if you'd like

YOu have to use the tuner style lug nuts, the reg ones wont fit, as for the hub rings, they should be in the box if not with the nuts. SInce u didnt' get any of your lug nuts then most likey it's not in there...
