it is always best to get it hubcentric. some feel they dont need it some feel they do. i personally feel like its a good thing.

making it hubcentric means it wont have a chance to wobble if bolted down not centered.

if you center it and bolt it down then it will be fine.

aftermarket wheels have a hub bore of like ~73, which is why when you put on wheels there is a bit of play upand down and all around. they make the hub bore bigger to make sure it clears all wheel hubs. thats why you are suppose to center the wheel before bolting it down to ensure no wobble or bolted off centered.

get the hubcentric. it is easier to sell them later if you decided to do so. some poeple wont buy if its not hubcentric.

the kouki 180sx/kouki base 240/g20 rims are so not flush. i had them for a while. spacers should do the trick, but i would go pretty high like 20mm or 25 and get nismo studs what about gto spacers?
