how do we determine the first number out of the two? (?)-60.1?

I'm putting my CE28n's back on and lost one.

You might have to contact the manufacturer or even a shop that sells those exact wheels. After you find the numbers, you can get the rings almost anywhere on the net.

Rings should be installed on every car, regardless of vibrations, in my opinon.

Just take a "mm" tape measure or ruler, and measure the center bore. And that's your #.



And here's another place you can buy hub rings/wheel accessories.

EDIT: I forgot to mention. If you go to search, you can input year, model, and wheel brand. And system will generate the recommended hub size.

My Genesis wheels have the same bolt pattern but, I have a 250 AWD instead of a 350. Will these hubcentric rings work for me as well?

no, you'll need 67mm (67.1mm) - 60.1 (60.06mm) hubcentric rings.

i don't see any benefits or issues between the two, though i've gone with plastic hubcentric rings twice and i've had positive experiences both times.

hubcentric rings are a must and doesn't matter if plastic or metal.

Normally I'd like metal, but I've seen quite a few metal ones get seized onto the hub, making it a pain to get off, haven't had any issues with plastic ones at all.

Yes, it is the same for most (pretty much all) Toyota/Lexus/Scion models with 5x114.3.

Did you buy the wheels from us?

If you did, just PM me and I'll send you a set at no cost
