Following an earlier thread which had a poster stating that lack of a "wheel centric" (should be "hub-centric") mounting ring on the adapters mentioned in the posts made them undesirable, I followed up with an email query last night to the makers. Their response was in my inbox this AM. Here it is.

(The company is in Canada - if their web pricing is in $C, that means the product is about $80US a pair - very competitive.)

There's some discussion going on in the "Brickboard" about your product. One person stated that your adapters are not "wheel-centric" (I believe the correct term is "hub-centric") because they do not appear to have the raised mounting ring for the wheel to center on. He put this forward as a reason to avoid them.

I would think that this is not important in a wheel that mounts with the usual cone-shaped lugnuts, but would be interested in your comments (which I may add to the present discussion on that BB). Regards; Bob


(RESPONSE:)

you are absolutely right. The adapters are CNC machined and the accuracy is much tighter than the wheel itself. If the proper mounting procedure (gradually tightening across the pattern) is kept, then there's no problem whatsoever.
I've seen many inexpensive aftermarket wheels with bolt pattern NOT true to the center bore! Can you say overconstraint?

Anyway, we've sold too many sets for all kinds of vehicles and yet haven't heard anything but positive opinion. We all run them in here - on cars, trucks, tricked-out 4x4's, etc. We've made them for 500+ HP racers - they still use the same set.

I hope this helps.
I'd like to see that discussion thread - please send me the link.

Thanks
