Can we talk about "center bore" for a minute?

I ran into the opposite issue with a set of aftermarket wheels. I put a set of American Racing Torq Thrusts on my B body. The wheels have a very large center bore, probably larger than any vehicle has. I needed to get a set of hub centric rings. I’m certainly not an expert but I think this is generally the case with aftermarket wheels today.


Another thing to watch out for is wheel stud length when swapping to a set of aluminum wheels. The centers of the Torq Thrust is much thicker than the OE steel wheels. Make sure there’s enough thread engagement with the lug nuts.

Thanks for that information. I have a pair of Wheel Vintiques Rallys on the rear of my Swinger. The center hole is bigger than the axle. Just the lug nuts keeping things centered. Those rings are the answer to that problem. I never knew they were available. Thanks again.
