I didn't use them but that's because I couldn't. The wheels I used were bored for a Honda and the diameter was only 2.5 mm larger than a Miata hub.Jeff Stuart wrote:Yeah, I'm not planning to use spacers, but I figured that's what they were. I was more interested in opinions on hub rings, and if they're needed. Thus far I have one tally in the "I like them" column, and one tally in the "they're for pussies" column.

Hey Jeff,
The taper of the lug nuts and seats in the wheel pretty much center everthing....the hub rings are just the ultimate guarantee of concentricity. Should work fine without them (especially at autocross speeds).
