Default Need some help

Almost ready to order my wheels and tires this week. Ran into an unexpected and confusing problem. Since I am only looking at wheels that will be rim or wheel centric I noticed quite a wide variation in the claimed hub sizes! Since the Audi oem size is supposed to be 66.56 mm many oem replicas are claiming be anywhere from 66.45 mm to the often quoted 66.6 mm. Since I don’t want to run with hub centric rings, what’s the scoop?

what size is okay to order so that I don’t need use hub rings.

your thoughts are always appreciated.

cheers

Youre good to go with any of those sizes without adding a ring. Those are all hubcentric as long as they start with "66".

The difference between 66.6mm and 66.45mm = 0.15mm ... that's less than 1/64 of an inch. You are worrying about nothing.
