98Indypacer,

Do you have hubcentric rings to eliminate any freeway wobbles? Do they wobble at all. I have these rims and was looking to find some hubcentric rings.

I have these wheels and no wobble. At least I dont thnink I have wobble. I have a littel vibration at 80 and above that is almost unnoticable but I attributed that to the one sided lip and them just being harder to balance.

FYI, if your looking to get 18s instead, they do have a 18x9 rim, but are backordered right now. I spoke with an HP rep today and he said the "container" is on its way and should be here by the last week of June / early July.

Make sure if you get 18s they are 18x9s and not 18x8s. As people commented in the other HP thread, the 18x8s don't look quite right. Too tall and not wide enough.

I bought mine used from another member. These wheels get far more compliments than any other wheel I've ever owned (which is a TON). Too bad they don't make a forged 3-piece version, because these cast 1-piece wheels weight a TON.

I have a set of 18X9's on my car. My car's front end seems to want to dance from side to side whenever I get on the throttle hard. I was attributing this to the fact that my car badly needs to be aligned. Am I in need of hubcentric rings? Thanks
