How do I find my hub centric ring size?

How do I find my hub centric ring size?

The size of the centric rim depends on two things: the center bore of the rim and the outer diameter of the car’s wheel hub. For example, if the diameter of the wheel hub is 72.6 mm, and the wheel center bore is 74.1 mm, a centric ring with a diameter of 1.5 mm is needed in-between, so the right size is 74.1 – 72.6 mm.

Is it safe to drive without hub centric rings?

If you don’t use hub centric rings, you transfer the weight of the vehicle to the lug hardware, and the wheel studs will break. Fact is, the hub centric rings do not bear a load. The weight of the vehicle is actually supported by the friction between the wheel and its mounting surface on the axle.

How do I choose a hub centric ring?

The Hub Centric Ring will take up the space between your Wheel Bore and Hub. For example, if the diameter of the wheel hub is 67.1 mm, and the wheel centre bore is 73 mm, a centric ring with an I.D. of 67.1 mm & O.D. of 73 mm is needed in-between, so the right part is TOC73-6710.

How do I measure wheel hub size?

Place a tape measure across the face of the exposed wheel hub, which it protrudes out from the center of the drum brake assembly. Take the measurement across the front of the hub, which is the diameter of the hub. Make sure your tape measure intersects the center of the hub. Write your measurement down.

How do I know if I need hub rings?

Do I need Hubcentric Rings or Hubcentric Adapters? Yes, if your wheel center bore is a larger diameter than your hub bore, you absolutely need hubcentric rings. This is because aftermarket wheels are typically designed to fit as many cars as possible unless they are custom-made for your specific application.

Does center bore have to be exact?

Therefore, in order to fit the new wheels correctly, it is important that the car’s wheel hub size perfectly matches the wheel’s centre bore. On the other hand, if the center bore is larger than the diameter of the hub, the wheel can be fitted, but unwanted diameter differences will be problematic.

Can hub centric rings cause vibration?

When the hub is smaller than the centre bore on the wheel, the wheel will not be technically centred. This causes vibration in many cases, especially around 80-100 km/h, that feels like a wheel imbalance. With hub centric rings, you fill that void and adapt the centre bore of the wheel to the hub bore of the car.

How do I know if I need hub centric rings?

What is the hub bore size?

The outer diameter is the hub bore, while the inner diameter is the diameter of the vehicle hub itself. For example: a hub-centric ring size of 73-67.1 would mean that the wheel center bore is 73 mm wide and the vehicle hub is 67.1 mm wide.

Does hub bore size matter?

What are hub centric rings?

Hub centric rings eliminate vibrations caused by non hub piloted wheels. Wheel manufacturers commonly make wheels with oversized center bores allowing it to fit more vehicles. US Wheel Adapters machines hub rings from plastic and aluminum. Why are these so Important?
