Just an FYI: What exactly does Hub Centric mean?

I was going to ask this question but I went and found an answer so I thought I would share for others like me who didn't know.

Yeah, and even some wheels (like from MHT - Foose, Dub, etc..) some will say are hub centric, but they're just a little big. So it's vibration city at approx. 70 mph if they're not on just right.

Which is why my Foose go on, after a couple of wraps of tape on the hub. :doh:

The stock SRT wheels and my beater winter chrome 5 spokes which cost a lot less than the Foose, both fit perfect.

With ball or tapered lugs, you **shouldn't** need the wheels to be hubcentric. Every little bit helps though.
