If you had bought the tire's and wheels from Discount Tire here in town I would take them back and try to get my money back if they are not able to fix the problem.

I am trying to find hub rings for my car but I have run into the following trouble:
1. The manufacturer is a joke, rude and no help at all.
2. The tire retailer found rings that fit the hub but not the rim
3. I tried a local wheel retailer and they had nothing that fit.
4. I called the Lexus dealer and they don't know the hub size of a '98 GS400
5. I looked on eBay and found a bunch of hub rings but really don't know which to get
Can someone please help me? I researched everywhere and cannot find the answer I need.
Thanks,

you should ask whoever sell you the wheels for the hub rings.
even if u search all over the place, u need to get the exact match of the <center bore>+<the wheel>, Or u might as well as forget the hub rings.
FYI the size the center bore of GS400 is 60.04mm, u can find something to fit that on ebay. (i saw some with inner diameter of 60.1mm)
HOWEVER, if the outter diameter does not fit, u r still screwed.....
SO, Chase after the guy who sells u the wheel is the safest way to get the right hub rings.
At least, ask the guy about what size MAY fit....and so u can try something with that match....
