For those who have the MRR GT1's did u guys put the hubcentric rings. When I got mine it didnt come with the rings so I just got them mounted with no rings. When I was driving after i got the wheels put on I had vibrations from 60 + speeds. I called our vender B2autodesign and he said I needed the hubcentric rings. But at the beginning of the thread someone said we dont need the hubcentric rings is that true? Please clarify.

when i had these wheels, they also vibrated around 60+, the only way i noticed it, was that the passenger seat was vibrating, i tried with and without the hub rings and they both vibrated, but i got use to it after a while,

I assume you had these on your IS350, what tires were being used?

To help clarify, many (including me) are using these wheels without hub rings and have no vibration.

But these wheels, like many, are not hubcentric, so the use of hub centering rings might be advisable for those experiencing vibration.

Ideally, while you are at it, a good experienced shop should balance all 4.

btw - what tires are you running?

I tested my car on the highway above 60 + speeds no vibrations now wohoo..

Nicely done. Most like the old tires were out of balance.

Don't know if you still care, but i have 19x8.5 235/35's in the front, 19x9.5 265/30's in the back. Black w/ polished lip on my black IS. No spacers (thinking about them for the rear, where the top of the wheel doesn't quite line up with the wheelwell arch... but the bottom of the wheel still does, maybe even more... so I'm not sure if I need it). Lowered with F-Sport springs. Barely can get two fingers front and rear. Had to use a heat gun for the front wheels but it was super easy. No issues in the rear. TPMS works perfectly. Weigh a little less than stock but don't know the exact numbers. Would post a pic but a) too lazy to do it from my iPhone as I'm on my laptop doing this, and b) the car is in the shop for the next month or so.

Wheels kick ***. No issues. I've driven them about 40K and have hit hundreds of pot holes. Only one time did a wheel bend and that was going 60 through FasTrak on one of our bridges... two inch high metal plate was there for construction without a warning and I nailed it... they're paying for it though. Other than that, no issues except for a little bit of the black paint peeling every so slightly near the lug nuts. Oh, and one of the "bolts" on the outer portion of the wheel (the silver bolts that run around the edge of the wheel where the lip starts) fell off. How do I replace that!?!

Installed these Gt1's in 19 inch on my GS460 yesterday. They came with hub rings and my car vibrates like anything above 60.

If it's the wheels then I am taking up this matter with B2A. However, will give the wheels the benefit and have the tyres rebalanced again. I am running on Yokohama S Drives too.
