2014 Silverado - hub centric rings for method wheels

WhineyTTwins · July 27, 2016

Has anyone found hub centric rings that work with Method Race Wheels. The 2014 silverado has a hub bore of 78.1mm and the method wheels have a center bore of 94mm. I've gotten these balanced twice already and I'm hating the fact that I can't get rid of the high speed vibration.

Ended up just ordering a custom set. I will post back when I get them on. Hopefully this is the fix I need.

Forgive my ignorance but what is the point of the hub centric ring? I was under the impression that as long as you bought hub centric spacers you wouldn't have any problems.

Hub rings fill the gap between the oem hub and the hub gap for aftermarket wheels.

They are generally not needed (I don't run them) with acorn bulge style lugs that self center themselves when mounting correctly.

However, like the OPs issue, they can help if you're getting vibes.

Oh ok, thanks for the clarification. First time I've heard of this.

Exactly. Hub centric rings ensure that the wheel is centered on the hub. Are they necessary? No, not at all but sometimes a wheel wont center correctly with acorn lugs. Will this fix my issue? There's a 50/50 chance to be honest. I rather try this first since I have experienced wheel shake before that was cured by adding hub centric rings

Did you ever get these on/did it fix your high speed shake?
