Where can I find 108mm to 106mm ALUMINUM hub rings?

    So I thought I had fixed my steering wheel vibrations by re-torquing all of my lug nuts but it just started shaking again today (it was good for about 5 days). So the next thing I want to try is hub centric rings but the only ones I can find in this size are plastic and many are saying they break very easily. So do any of you know where to find aluminum ones? Or am I stuck with just trying the plastic ones?

    Thanks in advance.

    There are good reasons for that as 4mm ring that size would be hard to machine and then it will bend easy. Use the plastic ones they will work.

    I guess I have to take this back as the link above checks out they will make 108 to 106 Custom Aluminum Rings... They are however $25 each...

    That's what I figured. I still thought they would be stronger than plastic. I already ordered some of the plastic ones though. :thumbsup:

    How strong do they have to be? They just center the wheel before its torqued down. The plastic might be a better option. It's less likely to permenantly deform thus losing its concentricity.

    There were just a lot of reviews that said they had to be replaced at every tire rotation because they were fragile. Not a big deal, I just prefer not having to keep buying hub rings. Especially if I have to keep messing with figuring out this shake.
