How to Fit Spigot Rings

Spigot rings are used to centre the alloy wheel correctly and safely on the hub of your car. If you have not installed spigot rings or have installed the wrong type of spigot rings your wheels will not be located 100% correctly on your car hub which will result in a vibration in your wheels when driving. This can easily be felt through the steering wheel.

To fit spigot rings you simply need to ensure the hole in the back of the alloy wheel is clean and does not already have a spigot ring inserted. Please see picture below:

Once you have checked that the hole for the spigot ring is clean you need to insert the spigot ring in to the hole in the back of the alloy wheel to ensure that it fits securely and is flush with the mounting face of the alloy wheel.

It is important to check that the spigot ring is flush with the mounting face of the alloy wheel; if this is not flush it can result in incorrect fitting of the wheel and not be safe for use.

Please note on some spigot rings there is a tapered edge which needs to face toward the hub of your car as this helps to guide the alloy wheel in to the correct position when mounting the alloy wheels to your hub.
