I can't find hubcentric rings that fit, help? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

money042 · 02-16-2009, 09:21 AM

Hi all, I need some feedback here. I have a set of TSW wheels that I pulled from my last car. Come spring time (I have winter tires on my factory wheels right now), I want to get summer tires and put them on my Camry. Here's the problem, the TSW wheels have a center bore of 76mm. The Camry hub is 60.1mm. That's a huge gap and I'm afraid I'm going to get major instability by going simply lug centric. I can't seem to find hub rings that meet thos exact specs. I've found 76x59.61 and 76x60.06, but nothing exact. If anyone has thoughts or ideas about the hub rings, let me know. Or am I S.O.L.? Sell the wheels and get new one?

My other thought is using ET (extended thread) lug nuts. I noticed the factory lugs off the Carmy have an extended edge that tucks into the wheel. Will using aftermarket ET lugs help the stability of the lug centric mounting?

Thanks.

What vehicle did you have these on before? (Year, make and model?)

What design is the wheel? What size is it and is it duel drill?

The wheels are Estoril by TSW. 19x8. I don't know what duel drill is.

No worries, Thanks for answering all my questions. I was hoping I could find exactly what you were looking for. I have a TSW data book and some internal tools that I wanted to check for fitment and specs. It wouldn't do you any good if I sent you something that won't work.

The ring size you are looking for is correct. You need a 76-60.1mm hub ring if you want to get them exact. We carry a lot of hub rings but that size is not one of them. Try Prestige wheel accessories. They may carry the size, I used them before when I worked for another company and if they are still around them may have them.

Note, The purpose of a hub ring is to help center the wheel when you bolt it on. Once the wheel is bolted on the hub ring does nothing. That said you don't need hub rings. If you take the time to mount your wheels without an air gun, they can be centered. ET lugs can help but you will want to make sure the extension of the lug does not extent beyond the wheel mounting plate thickness.

Good luck, sorry I couldn't help you more with the exact ring. You might also be able to have a set machined for you at a local machine shop.

Thanks for your effort and great feedback. I'll look around for a machine shop. Prestiege looks like they take custom orders as well, I may call them up. Or I'll just install the wheels with a little more precision to get it centered properly.

Another question, can you direct me to the correct lug nuts I should purchase for this application? I know the Toyota has a 12 x 1.50 thread. But what else should I look into? I've seen "acorn" "mag" "open end" "short shank" to name a few and the differnet lengths. What should I be looking at?

The offset of the wheels is +40. I'm thinking of getting a 5 or 10mm spacer to bring the wheels out a bit to fill the gap (like modded bmw's and audi's). Your professional thoughts?

Thanks again!

Instead of opening a new thread, I'll ask my question here. I bought a set of MB Wheels Boost from DiscountTire a while back along with the plastic hub rings. I'm looking to get a new set of the hub rings, plastic or aluminum, to replace the old ones that are falling apart, which is probably what's been causing the vibration this whole time.

Anyway, I can't seem to find the center bore of the MB Wheels Boost (18") anywhere! Do you have that info in your database DT? Do you carry those as well for purchase? TIA.

We would be happy to help you with your hub centric rings.

What year and model vehicle are they on? I can look up the exact part number/s for you. We should have both aluminum and plastic rings available for you. They run the same cost ($15.00 for the set).

Hey,

I also need some hubcentric rings. I have a set of 93 3000GT wheels on my 2002 Camry. I believe the diameter of the wheels is 67.1 and the diameter of the Camry is 60.1, but when I went to my local discount tire they said the wheels were already hubcentric. However, upon balancing, rotating and aligning I still have bad intermittent vibrations at 65-80 mph.

I wanted to know if you have any aluminum rings in this size

Thank You,

Abhi
