Advan RS-D Hub Rings

Does anyone know what size hub rings I would need to use to reduce the vibration on the Advan's? I have looked around for the specs but I can't find a definitive answer.

previous owner forgot to include them or never used any? thats strange. Call Amp or Forged, they should know and probably have them in stock.

I'll ask my vendor later on when he sign's onto the messenger.

I have the same wheels but the hub rings were thrown in separately so i don't think the Advan RS-D comes with them.

I don't believe they do. I would have included them in this sale... When the OP PM'ed me with this question, I contacted my shop and asked them what was used when they mounted these wheels. I was told, "standard metal hub rings used for Nissan hubs." So that is what I told the OP...

Any decent shop should have a bunch of different hubs hanging around. I believe the standard size for Nissan/Infiniti is 66.1MM.

Wow my iPad 2 is awesome then!!! I think I figured out my problem...the hub rings I have now are 66.1 to 73.1 from my Vossens, so that .1 mm can cause vibration so I've been told.

If the hub rings you have now are 73.1 and you're getting 73, I don't think the hub rings is the cause of the vibration issue.

I've read that even that slight difference can cause vibration....

Yes that's true. But if your current HRs were 72.9mm but you actually needed 73mm I can see why it'll cause vibration because there's a .1mm gap in between the HR and the wheel hub. With the 73.1mm HRs you have now, its snugged, so it's pretty tight, not loose, leaving no room for movement = no vibration.

Hopefully the HRs are you solution, if not, start by rebalancing the wheels.

I hope you get this figured out, because I don't even have hub centric rings and I'm getting them like Thursday or Friday hopefully. I've already had my road-forced balanced and I still get vibrations.

Anyways, are all hub rings that purple color that weiboy posted?
