Hub centric ring fitment. HELP!

i'm running my enkei evo 5's with a center bore of 72.6 without a hubcentric ring, and the stock bore is 64.1. do i need a ring???? i haven't noticed anything different and i really don't know what to look for, like vibrations or shaking etc. any info would be greatly appreciated.

If the wheels are balanced and you don't notice any steering wheel vibration at higher speed, then you are fine.

Some wheels are desinged in a way, when u use appropriate lugs nuts, it will help center the wheel. U should be able to tell wether there is a vibration or not from the new tires at high speed. I use to drive a civic with after market wheels and no hubcentric rings for years and the only problem i had was vibration. Make sure when u drive long trips, the lugs are tighted, or inspect them before taking the trip. by the way, i beleive u can ge those rings at ebay.

Got mine for my ROTAs from this seller.

Fit like a charm and no rust or anything.
