New Rims ! But shaking rims lol
Hey guys,
Just got new rims on my 02 es300. The guy I got them from said the rims were already balanced, so i just threw them on and they seem to be fine but when i let go of the accelerator I feel shaking in my seat. So im guessing I need to get them Balanced? and i defiantly need an alignment
Thanks

You need to get hub centric rings. made from either abs plastic or aluminum 20-40$
OEM rims are always made with a hub bore matching the hub of the car [Toyota 60.1mm].
Aftermarket rims as your are made with larger hub bore's to fit multiple 5x114.3 cars. This is where the hub centric ring comes into play as it is the rim size on one end, and the OE hub where it touches the car's hub so it 'centers' out the wheels on the lugs and no more vibration.
