Hub Rings

[Tiu]

Where can you buy hub rings (prefer metal > plastic)?

[Nepolian]

Metal if you have the choice, but either is better than none!

Can get then from wheel shops or ebay!

[lowie]

buy them from where you got the rims..if its a good shop.

otherwise you can also get them from the manufactorer of the wheels...ie i got my work emotion metal hubrings from a work emotion distributor

benefit of hub rings?

[m0nty]

Hub centric rings are manufactured so that when they are installed on a vehicle, the wheels are located directly off of the centre flange of the brake drum or rotor. This is done to insure that the outer beads of the wheel are concentric with the wheel bearings. The result is a much truer, better balanced tire/wheel assembly. This is very important with modern high tech suspension systems.

It's amazing what Google can do for you.

Do stock wheels ever come with them? as in the DC2R wheels? I need to get my car in for a wheel alignment, so was thinking maybe get hold of a set to make things nice and balanced

Stock Honda wheels are already hubcentric. The centrebore of the wheel is machined to be about the same diameter as the hub. No rings required.
