Wheel Problem Sloved I Think
 
Got my ADR M-Classics put on last Friday and had a few problems, turned out that the guy I bought the wheels from sent me the wrong size hub bore. He sent me 3 that had 73 bore and 1 that had the correct 66.56 bore. So now after spending $200 more I think I have fixed all the problems that this caused. I will get the hub rings on Friday and that should solve the last problem of the car shaking at 60mph. I will have some better and cleaner pics up after I get the hub rings put on but here are a few pics. Tell me what you think about the wheels.
Thanks,
-Chris

Great looking wheels! Let us know how the generals ride and hook up. The only thing I would do is put 10mm spacers on back but that is just personal preference.

Yeah I like those too, I was about to get the black mandrus milleniums but now these make the decision harder for my alabaster. If you dont mind me askin, how much and where did you get them from?

Thanks for positive commits guys, I got the wheels off eBay from bestwheeldeals; but don’t get them from him. He sent me 3 wheels with the wrong bore 73 and one with 66.56 the right size and he didn’t send me any hub rings or tuner lugs; so I have spent another $200 on top of the $545shipped I paid for the wheels. I think nateswheels sales them for the same price and you can add hub rings and tuner lugs to your order for $40 more but if you get the wheels in the 66.56 bore you want need the hub rings. So talk to the seller before you buy, they will always give you a better deal if you use PayPal without going through eBay.

The generals are a great tire I have had them on my stock rims for about 9k miles now and they still look brand new. They hook great, are quite, are great in the rain I mean like 4WD 235-70-16 good, and the only thing I would change would be to have a bit more firm feeling when taking hard turns. But they are worth the money got them for $560 m&b. Thought I would go with the BFG because I had them on my srt4 but the $850+ was not in my budget.
Thanks,

Chris

what is this bore that you're talking about? i'm going to be ordering some wheels soon and need to know details like this?

Re: Help Me, Wheel ?
 
Bore is your Hub bore on your hubs that you mount the wheel to, if that makes sense. 66.56 is the crossfire bore so your wheels need to have a 66.56 bore to mount hubcentric on your hub, so that you don't get any shaking in the steeringwheel. If you don't get the 66.56 bore you have to get hub rings that are the bore of your new wheels and then decrease or increase to the crossfires bore. And on the ADR's you need new shorter lugs because the stock ones are to long on the back wheels. I still need to order these for my wheels I am rolling on so rusty ones the tire shop gave me for free. The treaded part of the bolt (think it is called the shank?) needs to be less than one inch. Or you can use spacers.
Got this off a website: Hub centric rings are manufactured so that when they are installed on a vehicle, the wheels are located directly off of the centre flange of the brake drum or rotor. This is done to insure that the outer beads of the wheel are concentric with the wheel bearings. The result is a much truer, better balanced tire/wheel assembly. This is very important with modern high tech suspension systems.
