Message Hubcentric rings do ABSOLUTELY nothing other than hold the wheel in place while you put the lug nuts on. Hubcentric rings allow you to use a wheel that doesn't have the proper centerbore for your car.

Wheels are categorized as "hubcentric" or "lugcentric", most being lugcentric. That means as you tighten the lug nuts, the lugs and lug nuts center the wheel. Notice the lug seats in your wheel.

On the subject of wheel spacers, all they do is provide more clearance for suspension components, like brake calipers. If anything they add load to your lugnuts; think "washers". If you asked around tt.net, most would say "no to spacers".
