I just purchased these on ebay got them today and there is no outer lip on them for the wheel to fit onto the guy told me they were hub centric they do have the correct bore size for the actual hub but not one for the wheel.My quesion is are these gonna vibrate real bad? should i use them or send them back and get some spidertrax? they were pretty cheap 129.95 total sent to my door step free shipping. I emailed the guy back and told him i think i need some different one he told that if i want some spacers with a lip on them for the wheel he would have to custom make them cost is 275.00 for 4. what do you guys think?

Lots of threads debating this issue, but this is the conclusion I've come to: 3rd gens are both hub and lug centric meaning the center hole on the spacer centers itself on the hub and each beveled lug nut also centers the wheel to the spacer. No need for the wheel to center on the outer diameter of the spacer because the beveled lugs already take care of the centering. I have the kind of spacers you are questioning and I get no vibratons from them.
 
I did the same thing and went ahead and installed them but got annoyed after 3 or 4 months from the vibration when i go over 50mph.
I threw them away and got the spydertrax.
Don't waste your money.
 
Thanks for the input brian2sun and hani1400 I just tried to put them on and the center bore on the spacer is too big and had some play in it also the lugs and studs that came with the spacers were too big. my lugs would not even start on the studs on the spacers. So it looks like I'm to Spidertraxx to get the ones I should have ordered in the first place. Thats what I get for trying to save a buck.
