        Well it says 57.06 on the spigot ring itself but lets not split hairs over 0.04mm

          I agree. Would rather use the correct ones. At least OZ put some effor into the design. Just unfortunate they used an unsuitable material or failed to protect it adequately.
          OE wheels certaintly have an advantage on this front!

              We are talking 0.04mm. That could be taken off with a wire brush! (nearly)

                S2DriverUK got some for his superlegerras last year, might be worth asking where he got them.

                  Ian,

                  Understood, but 0.04 is a tiny diference not 0.4! I guess thats one reason they get stuck on the hub rather than come off with the wheel which is always fun!
                  Yep they are the metal ones. Three decent ones would help.

                    Had a quick look. Officially OZ only sell "Fitting Kits" which include the spigot rings and the correct wheel bolts. Normally that wouldn't have been a problem unless someone splashed out on wheel bolts before knowing this.
                    Other companies advertise the rings seperately but the price varies considerably. I'll do a little digging and post what i find in case someone needs replacement in future.

                        Update!
                        Well I eventually found some. Initially wasn't that impressed as one was manky. Sellers attitude was that I should be grateful as ".... there is currently no UK importer for OZ (the UK importer stopped importing OZs last May & they don’t have any spares left & they are not buying any more."
