    Just installed new set of xd spy's on 265/70/17 hankooks. Couple of questions.

    They sent four hub centric rings. Do I need to pull tires back off and install? They wouldn't fit on the hub. Does the black cover currently on the hub need to come off? What about the rear wheels?

    Also, there is a slight rub at full turn on drivers side only. Is it normal for only one side to rub?

    That hub ring appears to be too big for your setup. For hub rings tho, you dont need to pull off that dist cover..

    What are the specs of your wheels? Hub bore size specifically.

    Edit: got the info. Those wheels have a 106mm hub bore.. your good to go. You don't need those hub rings.

    Thanks Moose. Yeah the ring reduced bore size from 106.25 to 78 mm. Not needed. Is it odd that only one side rubs?

    When was the last time you got an alignment? If you have the datasheet, take a look the left front and right front caster angles. They could be slightly different. Since caster adjustment on Tacos is through the lower control arm cams, more caster = less rub.
