Default Looking for Hubcentric rings for stock rims need help with size.

I have a 98 gs 400 with stock lexus 17" rims I have not been able to find the right size hubcentric ring I have the bore size of the car 60.06 but not the od size.(Included is a picture of the type of rim I have)

I bought the car used and found that the previous owner used acorn lugs to bolt the wheel on and to my suprise the car had no shakes. I replaced the lugs with factory lugs and now have the infamous shake at 60 mph..

I have tried a few different things to correct this but for a such a small investment Im going to try hubcentric rings to see if it helps if anyone knows the exact size or where I can find it that would be GREAT

You cannot find hub rings for the wheel because the wheel is already hubcentric for the car.....

Unless the wheels were modified, the bore for the wheel should match the hub.

Agreed. Unless your bore is messed up or something. My stock chrome wheels in the back sat flushed on the hub without hub rings. SO yup yup!

you cannot use acorn style lugs to put these rims on your car. You have to use mag type which is what the oems are.
