Hub Centric Rings

Please , Please , if you get HCR's for your new wheels , get METAL rings . They distribute the stress better AND they won't melt .........

Discount Tire direct has them for about $2 a piece .

Hub Centric Rings? Are you trying to describe Beauty Rings?

I might've gotten some of those if I could've put Baby Moons on.

Plastic ones would melt in a fire that would burn the tires off the wheels.

He's talking about small rings that are used to compensate for the difference between the hub diameter, and the diameter of the hub bore in aftermarket wheels.
