    Default Canadian source for hub centering rings?

    Anybody know where in Canada I can get the hub centering rings to fit E39 wheels to an E34?

    If possible, I prefer not to order from the States because I'd have to deal with customs and duty.

    you can check with
    http://www.rmr.ca/

    they sell wheels for all kinds of cars, (BBS, OZ) - they certainly have access to them.

    Tirerack can't be the only people selling them!
    you can get plastic or alu.

    If it comes from the States and you can get whoever is sending them to either:

    A. lower the posted value
    B. mark it as a WARRANTY ITEM, no commercial value

    ...then you're in the clear! Unfortunately TireRack uses UPS to Canada so not only will you get taxes but very high brokerage fees as well.

    What's a "national tire wholesale" exactly? If it's the name of a place, I've never heard of it.

    Jay, PM me--I'll get them for you and just mail thjem to you... I paid $15 for the last set (no shipping charges). I think that post to Canada will be like $5 or so...
