Recently purchased and installed a set of Moto Metal 970 20x9 0 offset on 35x12.5 Cooper ST Maxx wheels. The combo is awesome looking and the fit is perfect. The truck sits with @ 2.8 with bils on all four corners. No rubbing or trimming was necessary with this setup. After install i test drive and noticed a steering wheel shake/vibration at 50 mph. Took it to a shop and had to rebalance. Took quite a bit to balance out properly. My question, concerns the use of hub centric rings. I was told that my wheels were hub centric, however i can't verify that anywhere. The wheel bore is 78.3 and our trucks hub bore is 77.8. First, are rings necessary for my specific application? Second, i've read that bc of the small difference in bore size between hub and wheel, that i could remove the lock-type washer that holds the rotor onto the stud of each wheel and this will help with balancing and centering the wheel? Any and all help would be great. Thanks
