If your alloy is rocking on the hub with the studs tight, it's a bigger problem than spigot rings unfortunately

Could just be a bearing, could be the cv joint
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Nahh if you just put the alloys on quickly it will send a really bad shake through the steering, especially on 17"+. But if you slowly put them on and take your time you can centre them pretty well but never perfect tbh.

Yeah but they'll never rock on the hub, only a loose alloy will Rock on the hub

Oh well the way I read 'rock on the hub' was more of an up-down movement than in-out [emoji38] up-down is unpleasant but not dangerous, in-out is deathtrap [emoji14]
