I wouldn't be surprised if your tire shop has some in stock

Oh really? I guess I’ll swing by there and ask. I would’ve figured I’d have to order some online. Good call!

I have never run hub rings and never had an issue. As long as you have the right lug nuts for the wheels and they are torqued correctly the hub rights do nothing. You can get them on amazon but yeah the local tire shop may have some in stock.

So since I can’t find much on these specific wheels, is it safe to assume all SSR Type-C’s require the same style lug nut?

Yes they should use the cone seat aftermarket lugs. Something like this.

Amazon Amazon

Basically any 12x1.5 lugs that have the cone seat will work just using these as an example.

Great thank you. So based on the center bore size, you think that if I torq the lug nuts correctly and carefully that I won’t need the hub rings? Im trying to figure out a rough idea on what I need to spend before asking the boss/wife. :P

I also don't use hub rings, just something you can use if the different sizes concern you. As long as you're torqued correctly with aftermarket cone lug nuts, you should be fine.

Torque them correctly and check them from time to time and it should be fine.

Great that’s a relief to hear. Called around and am having a heck of a time finding tires in the specifications I need. :/ this is so much more difficult that Civics!
