Those of you with LSC, Crown Vic, and Mustang wheels...

Where did you get your hub centric rings? I can not find 59.61mm x 70.3mm rings anywhere.

I saw a post saying they were picked up at autozone but I can't find that post now...and I cannot find them at autozone or advanced or oreily's. If anyone has purchased them there, please do share the part number.

Thanks!
Justin Duncan

I need hub centric rings?

They stayed on fine and didn't vibrate at highway speeds or fall off at an autocross...
The lug nuts centered the wheels just fine.

2002 Mustang GT wheels with Toyo Proxies RA1 DOT R-compound tires... Stock RX-7 lug nuts and wheel studs.

I don't use them either. Just be careful tightening your lugs and you'll be fine. 1999 GT wheels, 225 R comps.

they are completely unnecessary. the only thing they do is make it easier to mount your wheels to the hub. i currently work at a tire shop and mount non-hub centric wheels all day with no rings. it makes nearly no difference. just don't put in one lug nut only and impact it on full blast.

you could always get some rings that are pretty close in size and sand down the inner or outter bore....

Among the sets of wheels for my EP racecar I have mustang wheels. No hubcentic spacer, speeds of up to 135 mph+ with no problems. As noted before, put all lug nuts on and snug them down before fully tightening them. They will align with no problem.
