I have a set of RTS that are going on next week .Do you guys know if I will need a set of hubcentric rings to make it fit? What is the size I will need and where can i purchase them?

No they are not needed but they are recommended for a snugger fit. The hubcentric ring is something that goes on the inner part of the spacer and allows for no potential jiggling of the wheel when rolling.

So ya its a good thing. Do you need it? Up to you.

Its highly recommended to keep vibrations down to a minimum.. I had them for my 20's and for 19's..

Exactly why I would get a set. Like 20 bucks or something.
