New alloys centre bore 1mm too big.

[Saxby]

As title, I'm looking at buying some alloys but they have a centre bore of 57.1 so they're 1mm too big ( correct me if I'm wrong please) just wondered a couple of things

1. Would it make a difference being 1mm to large?

2. Where the hell can I find some spigot rings that small?

Much love

Anyone?!

I've made some before by cutting strips of sheet steel and rolling them in to a ring.

Not ideal but it did work fine

i wouldn't worry... the bore is for alignment which greased studs will find for themselves.

half my 12x alloys don't have spigot rings and I've noticed no issue.

I was thinking 1mm isn't too much of an issue tbh but if I can find some thin enough metal I may bung it in them if I get them for peace of mind.

Ty people

As John said. Mine are miles too big, the effect from tightening the studs/nuts up centres the wheel and takes the weight anyway....
