yes, for almost any aftermarket wheel, where the hub is a different size (smaller) than the space in the wheel.

I was saying that the hole in the wheel is too large. The hubcentric rings go on the hub to make it the propper diameter for the wheel.

Without them, all the force is on the lug bolts/ studs.

oops read that one wrong. Ive had to machine 2 sets of aftermarket wheels to fit mustangs before. The radius on the hub of the rotor was greater that the wheel. Just have to set it up on a mill and cut a 45*chamfer on the wheel. Really sucks because wheels need to be bare to do this correctly. Anyone got a pic of a hubcentric ring? Im fwd illerate. Thanks
