does anyone know the diameter of itr hubs and hub opening for slipstreams
i need to get hubcentric rings today for my r and dont have time to measure everything , and dont have the wheels with me right now . does anyone know this off hand so i cant just order them now . . . . .thanks guys.

 

Slipstream:


When i got centering rings for my volks (same size as the slipstreams), i got some konig centering rings, they're 73.0 OD, and 64.15 Inner Diamater. I think the R hub is 64mm.

edit: yeah, i thought i had a pic:

thanks dude. . . . . im glad someone else needed em too ., other people were telling me i dont need em

 

You shouldn't absolutely need them, but they exist for a reason...were you using tapered lugs (instead of rounded stock lugs) when you put the wheels on?

 

i was using tapered lug nut, they are tight when they are tightened , but wobbly as hell?
i dont knwo dude, i dont wanna wreck em . or have em fall off.

 

Aleph: Are the Konig rings made of metal or plastic? And also, where did you purchase them? I can't find metal hubcentric rings anywhere...

Thanks,
Andrew

 

also , i checked with A&A and they said they hub on the r is 140mm, so if the bore on the wheel is 73, it makes no sence to mount them ????? will these fit?

 

What they are telling you is incorrect. Pretty much all Hondas have a 64mm hub diameter.

The hub diameter on the NSX is 70 mm front, 64 mm rear.

 

My GS-R had smaller than 64mm hubs. A&A must be talking about something else, becuase 140 would be a pretty damn big hub. I got the plastic rings in the picture above from http://www.tires.com ....my volks came with 2 metal rings, that are exactly the right size...but were a little tight for my tastes, you'd have to tap them on and pry them off, which isn't something i wanna do every weekend when changing rims. If i were keeping the one set on, the metal ones would be the obvious choice. Pics of the metal rings at S&M, in the volk part of the mods section.

 

alright on the other post every said they diodtn use em so
i alled a&aback and anotther dude there got an r all worked out . anyway he tried the rings and cracked em anyway , so he said to just thread em in evenly and make sure the nuts are seated fine and they will be fine . . . . so ill try that , if i post up a post saying my wheels fell off, please dont laugh. . .. .

 

So has this been confirmed to be 64mm???
