hey all, i just purchased some new 17x7 rims for my 98 maxima. i notice on the box, it saids the center hole size is 73.1 i know the size for my maxima is 66.1 i was wondering if i need to get some center rings to make up the difference. will the rims be stable without them? thanks.

 

These are called hubcentric rings. I had a big problem without them, my 2003 shaked and wobbeled down the road until i got the right set of rings.

Also some rims are set up to be lugcentric where the lugs center the wheel instead of the hub.

where can i find the rings for maximas??? ebay doesnt seem to have one for our cars. thanks.

 

They are somewhat spicific so I dont think you will find them on ebay. Check discount tire and Gorilla automotive. I used Gorilla hubcentric rings on my Enkei and I havent had a problem. Just make sure you have the exact specs.

thanks... i found some at www.justforwheels.com

 

FYI, justforwheels.com is a ripoff. Plastic rings for $10 ea? I've gotten aluminum ones off ebay for $2-3 and plastic from DiscTire for like $1 ea.

 

i tried ebay but cant seem to find rings for maximas. the ones from justforwheels does sound like a ripoff.
