Hub Centric Wheels

[Love2Fish]

Main Line Overland is the US distributor, although not exclusive. My Evo Corse wheels were imported directly from the manufacturer in Italy. I didn't go by the prices on their website since they were very expensive; instead, I called them for a quote, and it was more reasonable. They took more than two months to arrive due to sea freight.

Awesome, thank you.

Hub centric rings with the correct ID of 93.1 should stay on the hub and make for easy install, not sure why it was a pain for you unless they aren’t correct ID and OD for the wheels? I’ve used hub centric rings on several vehicles over the years and never had issues or vibrations. Positive you have a good road force balance on the tires too?

Is your truck smooth at 75-90 ?

Yup she’s smooth. Hub centric wheels are the only way to go. I’ve fought the same thing in the past. Sucks our trucks don’t have a lot of options

Icon no longer sells hub-centric wheels for the Ford Ranger with a 93.1 bore. They now have them with a 95.1 bore.

You can find them, I was just looking before I got my Roush wheels

Ford Performance Method 703’s for the Bronco. Just another option

I have run Black Rhino wheels on all my trucks, they only use rings no issues. currently running Primm bead locks on the Raptor perfect ride.

I’m really happy I went with RTR… even with a wider E rated tire and 18s I saved 7lbs a corner from OE beadlock capable.

Looking good, I got the 17x9 30mm EVO6 in black waiting, truck should arrive in 2 weeks.

For what it's worth, I have a set of Method Ford Performance 703 and a set of Method 316 for my winter tires. The FP are hub centric, but the 316 direct from Method are "lug centric". I can't tell a difference between the two sets. This is from the Method rep, just passing along, feel free to take it or leave it.

"Our wheels are engineered to be lug-centric. When used with our specialized lug kit or any compatible 60-degree conical seat spline lug set, they ensure precise centering on the hub for optimal performance."

I wanted to go with the Bronze RTR wheels, but they were always out of stock.

I started asking around and RRW got back to me when I asked about their Bronze they use.

I ended up doing their pre-order for the RR5-H in Bronze with black machined aluminum trim ring and I also ordered their Extended Thread splined lug nuts. The center bore is slightly larger than what the Ranger uses, since it's designed for the new gen Tacoma, so I figured the E.T lug nuts would be a bit of extra insurance.

I've put roughly 1k miles on them and have zero issues as far as vibration, steering wheel wobble and so on.
The only gripe I have is the bolts they send for the trim ring, but I may have found a solution to them and will know in a few weeks, hopefully.

I ordered Method 708’s and filled out the vehicle information on Methods website indicating the wheels were for a 2024 Ranger Raptor.(or maybe just Ranger, I don’t remember) Anyway, the wheels came with hub centric rings already installed by Method to match the truck. I thought that was a nice touch and I love these wheels. Can’t wait to test the bead grip technology the first time I air down.

I had a similar deal with ordering some 703s for my R and came with some rings. When I questioned them they said they were for meant for a Chevy pickup and ignore them. Odd.

The adapter rings that came on my 708’s were the exact size required (93.1mm) for the RR hub bore. That’s why I thought it was a nice touch and intentional on their behalf to make sure the wheels were hub centric. The wheels came with a 106.1mm bore, but since I ordered them for a Ranger, Method sent the adapter rings already installed.
I also found a set of adapter rings on eBay, so if you have a set of wheels you like but they aren’t hub centric you may be able to get adapter rings to make them hub centric. I’m sure lug centric is probably fine, but it’s cheap insurance IMO.
