Properly installing hubcentric rings

[SeanMc]

Coming home from work yesterday, I notice a noise coming from my driver side rear wheel. I figure it's the fact that I can't get the rotor on straight. When I installed it, everything seemed fine, and figured that when I put everything back together, the rotor and what not would straighten itself out. I was wrong. So, is there a trick to these rings? I hammered them in, and they seemed straight, but how do I guarantee that they are straight and that they are the farthest they can go?

I'm confused... Your subject says rings, but in the post you talk about the rotor not sitting right.

The rigs should slip into the wheel or over the lib of the hub and be flat against the rotor.

Doesn't putting the 11.6 rotors in the rear require some kind of centering ring? I think that's what he's talking about.

K-Dawg hit it right on the nose. It's weird tho, doesn't squeak all the time.

Matt, I think you may be right. I noticed that the pads didn't have the springy thing on them. I guess I need to take them back to AutoZone.

NO SPRINGY THING! Their is your problem right there!
