My wheels came with plastic rings. I was told that they make sure that the wheel is centered on the hub.
yeah wheels that are not hub centric for that specific vehicle then you should put hub rings on to help the wheel be centered and also to not put some much strain on your studs. im not saying yours doesnt have it, or your wrong or anything just stating what i know.

well he def. does not have shitty tires, he has bfg kdwnt on the rear and mich. pilot sport a/s on the front... none of his wheels are bent and the tires are not out of round, choppy, or worn... i did a dynamic balance on both front and rears with 1/4oz. stick on wieghts, and clearance from the calipers were def. not an issue.
