I just installed my new wheels. they are the 93 cobra replica wheels 17x8.5's I got them from late model restoration or 50resto. I noticed the wheels aren't hub centric and I called them, they told me they are lug centirc and they have sold hundred of these sets w/o issues. I'm new to this lug centric deal is this okay or what, i'm a little nervous to be honest. I made sure to put the lugs on by hand and snug them with a ratchet then I tourqed them with the wheels of the ground, I had my friend step on the brakes , tourqed them to 100flbs to be safe, before I set the car down to help keep them aligned.
They told me just about all the rims for the 79-93 mustangs come with a larger i.d center hole. anyone else come across this. any ideas, am i safe, how about center rings, what are the measurements for the rings, 91 mustang 4-lug. thanks.

. like I said I'm knew to this(mustangs not cars in general) and it just didn't look right to me when I put them on, kinda gave me the mikey moused feeling. I just was looking to see what others experienced with wheel swaps to see if I'm okay or need rings or something. I'd hate to loose a wheel, and if you knew what I have been going through with this thing lately you would kinda get the feeling why I haven't been feeling lucky lately. ahh but I'm still having fun and pressing on, thanks for the responces.
