How can I get the proper Hub centric rings, I have Antera 309 in 5x114.3 which is very rare but they didnt come with the rings, how do i measure or choose the correct ones and where do I get them?

Go to Amazon and order what you need. This is what I ordered for some 5zigens I bought a couple of years ago. Looks like from the first listing I googled, you have a 50/50 shot if you order either 71.6 or 75mm. But you just need to look up the wheel you have to get the correct diameter and then confirm with a set of calipers.

(edit: wrong link)

Isn't 73.1mm considered universal for aftermarket wheels? The SC's hub is typical Toyota/Lexus, 60.1mm. So, you want an adapter ring to size the hub up from 60.1 to 73.1 in most cases.

You are probably right, I ordered one set and they were wrong, maybe the ones in the link were the wrong ones.

Edit: Yep, wrong ones in the link I listed. Here is the correct one that I ordered. Like td said, I think this should be a universal that would probably fit your wheel, but you need to measure/confirm somehow.

Take a look at maximum motorsports web site. They have Mustang specific hubcentrics which are 5x 114.3 as well as spacers and longer hub studs.

Or you could just order the $10 ebay hub centric rings. We aren't talking about rod bearings or ecu sensors here, we are talking about an aluminum ring.

^ And a lot of people say the cheaper plastic ones are actually better, as they're less likely to seize (metal on metal). There shouldn't be any force on them to speak of.

No those will not work Antera uses a specific ring with a clip as pictured on this thread, I contacted them and I am emailing a distributor to get the right rings right now hopefully they get back to me soon.

They look like an aluminum ring, so the ebay or amazon rings should still work. But it's your wheel so whatever.

No, they will not work as I have already tried to fit an ebay set on my wheel and they are DIFFERENT they do not fit at all, ie. last thread I posted has pics, Antera wheels all use the same Hub Centric ring that is only made specific for ANTERA wheels.
