Do i need hub rings for aftermarket rims? If i run aftermarket rims without them will i damage my car? If i need them where can i get them? thanks

They are very recommended. Driving without them isn't bad for the car, but it just keeps the wheels from vibrating at high speeds. You'll feel like your wheels have to be balanced. They basically keep the wheel center and aligned. Where ever you got your wheels, see if they can provide them for you if not, most wheel dealers can special order them for you.

just be sure, when you go back to your stock rims that you remove them if not, your wheeles will wobble like crazy till they come off the car. happened to me, got to the point where the lugs where coming off. All i wanted was for town fair to fix a busted tire and but the stocks back on balanced, well they forgot to remove the spacers, scary ride home!
