Aluminum hubcentric rings? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Burt · 03-19-2015, 10:16 AM

I got a set of wheels and tires used recently, and at some point I lost one of the hubcentric rings that came with them. I measured on of them, and it's a 73.99mm O.D. / 67.06mm I.D. Gorilla makes a set in that size, but they're a poly-carbon plastic, and the ones that came with the wheels are aluminum, and I'd like to keep it that way. I've emailed Forgestar (the wheels are Forgestars, and they offer hubcentric rings) but I'd to know if there are any other sources for them. Thanks for looking!

They look like they make good stuff, but the ones they make in the size I need are plastic.

I'll get a hold of Tire Rack and see what they say.

It may be advisable to go with the plastic like material if you're gonna drive with those wheels in the winter as the aluminum hubs will freeze on the hub due to oxidation/salt. Ask me how I know, lol ... wheels came off with a bit of work but the aluminum rings were stuck on hubs and we're a pain in the ass to get off. Also the rings don't much after they locate the wheels on the hubs and you torque down your wheels.

If you're goona go with the aluiminum ones put antizeeze on them.

amazon has two suppliers with 74.1OD 67.1ID, search for aluminum hubcentric rings 74.1od 67.1id about $20 for set of 4

I've got OEM wheels and snow tires for when it's cold, these will only be on the car from now until November or so.

Good call on those ones on Amazon, I don't know why I couldn't find them when I looked.
