So I have new rims and tires, just sitting in the garage. I have Hubcentric rings on order but they won't be here for like another week or so due to they were out of stock and had to get ordered.
Well I blew a tire out on my Stock wheels last week, and have avoided driving, well now I have to start driving the long distance to work and I have my spare on and since it's only rated for like 80 miles and not high rates of speed I wan't to not use it.
Would it hurt to put the new rims on without the rings?

 

Just eat your way out of the pickle...

 

If only it were that easy.....

 

essentially you can... but you shouldn't if you end up puttin the rim on a bit off center you'll get some vibrations.. the lugnuts may be able to hold it center but not likely.. id wait. u couldn't get the hub rings anywhere else?

 

i dont know how it is in FL but out here you can buy used tires..they'll throw it on for like $35 including the tire..you should check into that

 

No. I checked everywhere online. Like a google search and went to every site I could find. Unless I find them somewhere else and can get them sooner, I'll cancel the other order.

 

ummmm, I'd be more worried about where I was going out for my 21st if I were you, lol, if you put the wheel as close to center as you can get it, you'll get a little vibration, but you should be ok until you get the rings you'd be surprised how many people ride around w/out them, go to justforwheels.com, lol, their advertisement is was on the bottom of the page on this forum

 

wow... if that's the only the I had to worry about in life...

 

any discount tire should have em or could get em faster

 

You can drive without the rings. I never had hubcentrics in a set of TSW I had on my old Mitsu, and they were on the car for like 7 years.

 

Lastnight was fun. I already knew where I was going out for my birthday lol.

I found some rings. They should be here friday.

 

I don't have any rings on mine, and I took my car on a road course last weekend! if you take your time putting them on, it won't be an issue later. With that said, I'm still going to get a set to make things easier when installing the wheels.

 

sounds like your best and only option now

 

Yea, they might have to go on a day or two early. Then I'll just take them back off and put the rings on them when they come in.

 

What size hub rings are you looking for?
