FORGESTAR WHEELS: Plastic Hub Ring Device ??????
FORGESTAR WHEEL OWNERS: Are you familiar with the Plastic Hub Ring Centering Device
that came with your Rotary Forged Wheels ????
Are there any negative issues associated with mounting running these Wheels (CF10's)
on my 2012 Grand Sport.
The ForgeStar Web site nor my (ex) selling dealer made any mention of the use of these centering
devices nor that FORGESTAR Wheels are NOT Hub Centric. I became nervous, upset, and wary
and my purchase "BLEW UP"
Ive even had one SoCal FORGESTAR Dealer that they and there customers "Have Never
Used a Hub Ring" ?????? so would ONLY the lug bolts/nuts be centering the wheels ???
Please dont suggest I buy REAL Forged Wheels like ForgeLine or HRE....Im well aware of their
Quality, Beauty AND $$$$$$$$$$$$$

Relax, the sky is not falling. If wheels are not hub-centric to the vehicle, then hub rings are used. Simple. This is nothing new. I have used hub rings on every set of custom wheels I have owned (multiple vehicles) since the 1990s.
