Hubcentric Rings for my RPF1s

Hi all,

I just had a shop tell me I'm missing my hub centric rings. When I think about, it i'm not sure I ever had them in the first place.

I know my hub bore is 56.1mm, and the rpf1s are 73mm, but I'm seeing lots of universal items that are "56mm" or even "73.1mm". Will these fit my needs? I am looking for metal rings as well.

These are the one's I am looking at.

TIA

Order your rings from Motorsport Tech. They're high quality billet CNC parts, made specific to your needs.

The center bore on your RPF1s is 73.0mm, not 73.1mm, and it makes a difference. If you get precision machined rings you should be able to use a rubber mallet or deadblow to put them into place and they will seat fully, semi-permanently adapting the wheels to your car's hub diameter.

I sanded mine down for some clearance prior to fitting, you will need to do this if you ever want to fit a full sizes spare or space saver on it.

Thank you but unfortunately I need metal ones.

I hear the plastic ones can melt under track use...

I never had my plastic ones melt, but they did crack and fall out when pulling my wheels off after a few track days, which is why I switched to metal.

Well I don't know if I "need" them. I haven't run them for like 70k miles and my wheels haven't fallen off so I assume I truly don't need them. Just for piece of mind as the roads around me are getting worse and worse...
