Both my 18s and 19s needed rings, but no bad results...or is the Jag just REALLY sensative?

    well if he has a good set of tires on those R wheels he can easily sell them for 4-5gs and get DPE, Iforged, Jline, Forgeline, ect. You missed read that or i prolly missed typed it. THEY ARE NOT HUBCENTRIC!

    are you saying the stock wheels ARE or ARE NOT hubcentric? or are you saying the aftermarket wheels aren't hubcentric?

    I think he means the stock wheels arent hubcentric, hence the reason hubcentric rings would not help on aftermarket wheels. Now this may seem stupid, but im just wondering what are they wheels (or where are they) if they are not "centered on the hub"???

    From back in the day* I was told that most if not all Jags have bolts that hold on the wheels* not lug nuts. And because of this it is difficult to find a wheel that was designed to be bolted to the car. I'm not in the mood to pull the wheels of of mine to find out sooo..

    I'll be back at the dealer today..I'll ask around.
