    Ha! I wasn't even thinking of hubcentricity. I had to get steel ones made for my VW alloys to mount on my Aspire swap a long time ago.

    I paid about $115 for them! I hope you don't pay that much.

      They are going to see if any of their hardened plastic ones fit on Monday otherwise I guess I'll have to take the same route as you and get custom ones made up. $115 ouch that's a lot, oh well we'll see how it goes.

        Good news everybody! (in my best Dr Farnsworth voice)

        4 plastic hub rings has fixed Winnie's shaking problem. 90mph up the freeway and smooth as. All up it cost me a whopping $10! (they had steel set for $100 so not far off what you paid Safety Guy but I went with plastic since it was such a snug fit) - gotta love a cheap fix.

        Now I can finally put the last 12 months of work behind me, only small mods remain until I eventually do the motor swap.
