Default Q about Hub centric rings

So, wheel shop wants $80 for hub centric rings and they're like $20-30 online. I don't care to just randomly give people money so is there a standard size for the car and the wheel or do all sizes need to be measured?

Basically I'm asking if our cars have a standard inner ring size and can I call the wheel company for the outer size of my rim. Or must this be measured?

60.1 is our hubcentric ring diameter, I bought my set for $6, call the rim manufacturer they can tell you the size of your hub bore.

Last time I went to America's Tire they sold and installed them for me for $20. They found out the measurement and everything too.

The rings themselves only cost $5 and labor is $15. I just didn't feel like taking my wheels off myself at the time, so I let them do it.

I was given a set of plastic rings when I bought my wheels, but bought aluminum ones instead for around $20. $80 is a ripoff.

72.6-60.06 is what you would need.

I had plastic ones on my Bmw, the main concept to use to is to eliminate and vibration etc your getting with the after market wheels. If you don't have problems it doesn't make any difference.

Plastic is better, metal can get corroded.
