Hub centric

[Toneboski]

Hey guys,
How can i tell if aftermrket rims are hub-centric? If they aren't what can i do if i wanted to get non-hub-centric rims so that they would work? Thanks.

You could always have a machine shop make some hub "rings". So that they would fill the gap. I'm assuming that you could have these made out of round stock aluminum. Which is cheap, and the measurments and amount work involved would be small. You also could ask for 2-3 sets, just in case they were to ever break.

buddy of mine had that problem when he ordered the wheels for his 92 SHO..... lincoln LS 17" wheels..... he had to have a shop custom make the spacers to a hubcentric design as well as changing the offset... i am not sure of the price, but it was aluminum and fairly expensive

after its all said and done..... those wheels look AWESOME on the SHO..... looks like they were made for it..

You can buy the rings. I run without them with no problems. Just be careful about tightening up the lug nuts evenly and initially with the tire off the ground.
