Is anyone aware of a good place to pick up some Hub Centric Rings? I understand TireRack has them, but not for sale, only for new wheel purchases.
Thanks

go to a discount tire and tell them your name of wheels (they may have to take them off for fitment ) and your car and they will usually give them to you for free i have bought several wheels from discount tire and on my last pair i went to another location and they didnt look anything up just called wheel manufacter and gave them to me !

are you in Southern Cal? If yes, go to American Tire you can pick up a set for less the $20. If you are in OC I can tell you which one to go. You can PM me.

Are you looking for plastice rings or metal?

I was on ebay the other day looking for adapters and came on anodized aircraft aluminum rings around $25. the metal rings are the way to go because of less flexing in the materials. Just do a search under "Hubcentric", and you will find it.

I picked some up at Americas Tire. $5.39 including tax for a set of 4. They even had the application in their computer.
The part I picked up was
73-6006
Wheel Bore-73mm
Hub -60.06mm

Fits perfect.
Even with a real balance, I still get a slight vibration at 60 and 80 so I am going to go ahead and update the steering rack in accordance with the Lexus TSB that addresses vibration.

Got a question....Do I need hubcentric rings if my wheel was made for exclusively for 5x114.3 bolt pattern?

One seller told me that I only need the centering rings if the wheel is a multi-bolt pattern wheel...ie: 10 holes (5 for 5x114.3 and 5 for 5x100 bolt pattern).

Comments please.

Yes. You should never rely on the lug nuts to center the wheel. One-your placing the load of the wheel on your lug nuts, and Two- you will not get perfectly centered using only lugs nuts causing vibration. Always use centering rings. The difference is noticable,safer, and it allows the wheels to be installed much easier.
