Hubcentric Ring size?
Hey all, I'm looking for some hubcentric rings for my rota slipstreams on my 00 civic ex. Anyone know the sizes I should get? The rims are the 16x7. Thanks.

I need the rings cause the rotors on my car are getting uneven wear from the Rotas. I was told they aren't down pat, so I needed the rings to help out.

uneven rotor wear would be do to a lazy slider or something in the caliper not the rims!

well, it doesn't mess up your rotor, but it can F up your rim though...and your lug studs. It happened to me once. If you notice, when you put on your rota slipstreams (IF YOU HAVE ROTAs....AND THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEVER PUT ON ROTAS BEFORE) your hub does not sit flush to that opening from the Rim's hub opening...and in this case, the wheel itself sits on the studs..causing the wheel not to be in perfect CENTER. and this can cause uneven wear to your tires...or even worse if you don't tighten your lug nuts tight enough then it can damage your wheels where your studs are at. I have first hand experience....
