Hub spacer YES or NO?

[DivineStyler]

I want a set of direct fit like a glove rims for the e30 but it seems somewhat difficult and I like the Konig remembers and even ESM, but hub size is 73.1...

I kinda don't want to use hubrings... any oppinions?

i would still consider a wheel that needs a hub ring a direct fit. its one more thing you need to buy, but they do not affect mounting like spacers or adapters do. in fact i was not even aware that my first set of Borbets on my e30 had hub rings, because they just stayed on the wheel when removing them.

why are you concerned about hub rings?

i have a set of rims now with hubrings and they work fine I guess, but what about for the track? any concerns? I know how much vibration takes place without the rings takes place so wouldn't it be better to have the correct size in the first place? just wondering... all your oppinions are very well noted and helpful to my learning...

no concerns. the hub (and hub rings) are meant to properly center the wheel. after that, its the lugs and friction between the hub and wheel that hold everything together.

I bought a lug conversion kit and forgo any hub rings.

Stud kit... end of all issues

I have a stud kit had vibrations with other wheels... if that's what you mean...

if I had money sure... but that's a big price difference from a lug conversion to hub rings... if that's what you mean also? or refering to stud kit as well...

[straight6pwr]

a stud kit wont center your wheels properly...

Aren't most of the ESM wheels 57.1 anyways?

I don't think so... From what I see hub bore size is also 73.1

No problems with Hub rings to report here, they are quite nice actually
