its not very hard/time consuming for me to do it. plus, salt just eats away at susp parts, so resale value IMO will deff go down. i always swap my parts for the east coast winters. but im glad that i was able to narrow it down to my wheels/tires.

took my wheels into my buddies shop, nothing wrong with the wheel/tire. so i grabbed my hub-centric rings, and sure enough, they were the wrong size. they were a tad to small, thus casuing my wheel to not sit 100% flush with the hub. i wont be re-installing them until the spring, but hopefully new rings will be the answer!!!

Nice work in finding the problem.

Were the hub rings too tight in the wheel or too tight on the hubs on the car?


I did note that the hub centric rings fit my new wheels nicely but I never did actually test fit them on the hubs other than a quick measurement.

the rings fit nice and tight on the hub, but not on the rim. it wasn't off by much, but i guess thats what it was.
