I am around 12,500. PWND!

I have not had any issues with my aluminum hubcentric rings on two sets of wheels (no tracking, plenty of spirited driving). A couple of them stick to the wheels a bit, but still come off easily. They don't stick to the hub at all. I find it simply makes it a lot easier to mount, as I can get the studs centered before even putting the first nut on, and it can be held with one hand while the other grabs a nut (get your mind out of the gutter).

I have no idea what grade Al they are. I see the plastic ones as cheap insurance for crappy tire shop techs. And there are lots of those.
