So im having issues getting a snug fitting set. Everyone says the newer Silverado's are 78.1, right? I have ordered 3 separate sets from different companies and its loose, as if i need to order a straight up 78 and not a 78.1

 

Anyone else have this issue, or a suggestion of where to get a good ring set? Ideally the 106.25(my rims) to 78.1 (21 Silverado) should work but its not.

Ever hear the saying; "Same fit don't fit"?

0.1 mm is .0039 inches. Snug but slip fit

This is not a press fit situation. 

If you find a ring that is press fit...have fun getting the wheels off again.

I have had that scenario in several wheel fitments across the brands of vehicles. Same as with wheel spacers, some fit better than others. But I have also noticed that the OEM wheels have a bit of play in them as well.  Currently in my 2019 new body style with aftermarket Vision wheels, the hub centric rings are a slight bit looser. The slight vibration I feel is related to this or a crappy balance job. just not enough to make me go nuts over it. I`ve had BORA wheel spacers give me more grief, if you can believe that.

My shop said they would order a set, according to what they measured the hub on the new body is 77.8 not 78.1 so he tried on a 77.8 that he happen to have for a trail boss they were working on....PERFECT FIT! so now im waiting on that to see if my vibration with the new wheels goes away. I drive a lot of the highway and the vibration for 60-90 minutes on a drive makes me go nuts haha. Lets see what happens.
