I asked this same question today. Discount tire sells the correct size.
Thanks to Aleph.
Thanks to Aleph.
These have the same diameter hub as my volks, so i can use the same 73.0 x 64.15 konig centering rings.

I have the slipstream too. NO, you do not need the rings. It's a waste of money. The rings purpose is to center the wheels. They do not cary the load of the car. The lug nuts will center the wheels for you, but make sure you torque it down correctly. It is be between 80-84 lbs.

i've since had them on the street for 1 month and 3 HPDEs without the rings and haven't had any problem whatsoever

but I didn't end up getting them, the rings from my current wheels fit fine.
