hubcentric my ***! i thought i'd save a couple of bucks. now i have wide track vibration and a large pain when rotation time comes cause the center just isnt there enough to hold up the rim. i'm hopeing that someone has a salvage idea like the magic hub ring numbersto save me.

 

What size are they?

 

two 15mm's and two 20mm's. the ring in the center that must be a perfect fit for your rim is wrong and it doesnt have enough lip to even hold up the rim while your placing the lug bolts in! my only way to salvage is to get lucky with an order of hubcentric rings that the after market wheel companies put on the rims they sell you.

 

I wouldn't trust them if they don't do what they are designed to do. Putting spacers on your car is risky enough since it is relying on the lug nuts to hold the weight of your car when they were only designed to hold the wheels on. Since they are just pushing the wheel out further without supporting any of the weight it is dangerous to use them.

 

porsche uses or used spacers for there turbo models. the ones from h and r are the way to go cause when the spacer size goes beyond 20 mm they bolt the spacer to the hub first ,then starts over with stock size bolts screwing into the spacer. theirmore like adapters. i check the tork on the bolts and see if they backed off any from time to time. wheel bearings are what go. but so do wheels with large offsets making the wheel stick out rip bearings out too!

 

I'm not saying spacers are all bad, but if they are too thick they can cause problems.

 

i know your right but i love the look of the stock wheels with the right stance. the 05 gto is where all the money goes for the mods.id like to put coilovers and 20's on the s8 but it looks so subdude cool to me right now.
