Default Can you use an ABS hub/bearing assembly on a NON-ABS car?

I came across a good deal on a set of brand new rear bearings/hub assembly for my integra rear brake swap. Can I use these on my NON-ABS brakes or would I need to press the abs ring off of the hub assembly?

if the hub will fit in place with the abs ring still installed, its fine to leave it on the hub assembly. But its very easy to press it off. I just did this to my em1. Just clamp the hub assembly into a vice and tap all around the ring with a hammer and punch. usually when you go to a parts store to get one, they will all come with an abs ring. its personal preference if you want it installed or not.

You could also cut it off with a die grinder, just be careful not to hit the hub. Grind it down close to the hub, and then use a hammer and chisel and that beotch will come right off.

Good to know, in that case I'll just leave the abs rings on if it won't interfere with anything.
