Have naive hope that if something like that happens again, i'll be able to notice with less chance of something major breaking. With larger center hole and non tightened lugnuts, won't studs break off due extra play after few wheel rotations? Also isn't it simpler to do first turns of lugnuts on wheel change/unmount, while wheel is still on ground? What will happen if trying to do that w/o centering ring on wheel with non native hole bore?

Just buy the rings if it makes you feel any better.
They aren't needed on this car and it is a long explanation and people have different opinions. I would tell you to search and see what other people say. They are needed on other cars that use bolts instead of nuts, or cars that don't use a tapered lug seat. Like on a bmw for example. Just buy them, they are cheap. Just make sure to get the aluminum type. |
