I just got some new wheels today but they didn't come with any hub centric rings.They are made to use hub centric rings but they didn't come with any. Could I just go to big o and order the rings. Oh yea,the wheel manufacturer is American Eagle.

You don't really need them if they use tapered lug nuts. I've never used a hub ring, too much of a pain and they don't do anything.

I havent found them to be a pain. Your car will shake at high speeds if the wheels isnt pressed on the hub perfectly straight. I need a set for my 3000Gt because i can never get the wheels perfectly centric to the hub.

I got mine from ebay. I got a set of metal ones for 15.00 bucks shipping, and they seem to take more of the vibriation down than the plastic ones my rims came with.

Thanks for the help guys. I checked that link but they were out of the ones I need. I ordered some of the rings off of ebay but i went to big o tires today and got a set because I have a hard time waiting for stuff to come in the mail.

Yours might. Mine doesn't. Torque the wheels with the car in the air (you should anyway) and you'll never have a problem. |

Done that a thousand times on my 3000GT...Sometimes it will be straight but most of the times its not. Its just a matter of getting lucky. The steering on the 3000Gt is really tight so it picks up every little vibration if stuff isnt perfect.
