"Don't forget... we make CUSTOM NT03+M SPECFIC anodized aluminum hubcentric rings!"

Waste of money. I purchased a set and found the clearance between the ring and the hub very loose. [ .010 ] Ten thousands is a large amount, the ring will not be beneficial with this play. The car is a 2006 Evo with very low mileage, so the hubs are not under size. I contacted Touge and the gentleman was very friendly. Took my name and number, but never returned a call.

Hi,
Please check your PM.

We just measured the center bore on 8 of the OEM Evo wheels we have here, and three of them are off by almost a full .15mm on our micrometer, however they fit snug.
The aluminum rings are machined precisely to 67.1mm and the outer diameter is precisely 72.2mm as specified by Enkei.
Keep in mind that normal driving will generate enough heat to expand the rings .010mm
On the same Evo 8 we took the wheels off of... here is what the car's hub measured: 1. 67.08mm 2. 67.18mm 3. 67.14mm 4. 67.12mm

You can see that even the hub on the car varis... why? because everytime you put on your wheel and take off your wheel, you are taking off microscopic amount of material off of the hub.
We can produce the rings to what the manufactures tells us the specs are... however even the manufacturers have what's called a "margin of error"

Thank You for the reply. I realize it is not your fault. The factory tolerances on the front hubs must be very large. My front hubs are within .0015" of each other. Although they measure 2.638" and 2.6395. The rings measure at 2.648" If the rings are machined to 67.1 mm which = 2.64172 then maybe I got a batch that is not machined properly. I do appreciate your response and will continue to do business with you.

HI,
Thanks for the interest!

Currently for this year, we are not planning another run.
Stay tuned for something new for 2011!
