    Custom centering rings? Where to get them?

    Like the title states.

    Unless someone knows of an off the shelf 60mm to 57.1mm.

    I went to justforwheels.com. Good price and quick shipping. I don't know if they have that exact size but they had a lot so check them out and are what they have.

      I just ordered mine from www.TireRack.com Actually I would recommend calling them. What wheels are they for? If tire rack sells a similar set from the same manufacture they will have what you're looking for. Because I was looking for rings for my Borbet As but since the don't carry those, I got the rings that fit the Borbet B's.

        Stolen words from another forum:
        I got them from Discount Tire Direct.
        1 800-707-8473. ext.437
        the code for the rings was 81802
        73-56.1 [Red]
        as if it matters eh!
        Excalibur Metal Ring Set = $15.00 with $8.00 shipping to Florida
        so that might change.:thumbsup:

            When I bought a set of tires from Discount Tire they threw in the hub-rings free of charge. You may be able to convince them you bought a set of tires and just say "can you throw in some hub rings too?" and they'll hook you up, they give those things away like candy.

              I suppose I could machine some centering rings for pretty cheap. Is there any advantage to having metal rings vs. plastic ones? Durability?

                If you can do them for around 20 for a full set. The last 3 full sets of 4 I have gotten were all between $20 and $30. Metal is the way to go. The plastic ones crack with stress and over time.

                  What would you charge? How long until you could have them made up?

                  I would much prefer metal to plastic if possible.

                    I got the same ones you need(60mm-57.1mm), by calling America's Tire. It took them a week to get them in their shop, but they were only $16. They are the plastic ones BTW.

                        I won't be able to get anything done until the beginning of summer, so I'm of no help at the moment. But, if I do end up making some, it shouldn't be a problem to do them for around $20.

                        I'll also be making up some hub-centric wheel spacers for much less than the H&R's I bought.

                          You'll definitely sell them like crazy.

                          Just wish it wasn't going to be so long before you could make them.

                          OTOH, if the BANG i heard the other day turns out to not be the guibo/cause more damage, I may not need the stuff just yet!
