Default Centering rings for wheels

Anyone come across centering rings that would adapt a wheel with a centerbore of 66.56 (Mercedes?) to our centerbore of 57.06?

Default Wheels up my sleeve?

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/93353/enkei_j10_wheel.jpg"></center><p>I was looking into the Ruff Racing Wheels that I mentioned to you earlier this week which are available with a 5 x 112 bolt pattern but with a centerbore diameter of 66.56. However, I spoke to the wheel distributor and he informed me that they were manufactured in Taiwan and agreed that they were not of the highest quality. Looking forward to seeing the Fittipaldi Fin wheels when you get them. I also came across some nice looking Enkei wheels that Discount Tire carries (see pic).

Default Hub Centric Rings

I just came across a place that stocks polcarbonate hub centric rings in several sizes for reducing the centerbore diameter on some of the aftermarket wheels to our 57.1 size. Eurosport Garage (eurosportgarage.com) has the following ring sizes: 74.0 to 57.1, 73.1 to 57.1, 72.62 to 57.1, and 67.0 to 57.1.

Default Sure, why not. As if 4 sets wasn't enough, I found...

Fittipaldi rims on closeout for $105 each. 18x8.5, et38. Just don't know if they're an MB or Audi center bore, so have a set coming to check out. Might be the ultimate in inexpensive track wheels. And made by Enkei in Japan (Fittipaldi's parent company) so should be pretty good quality. Guess I'll find out in a few days when they arrive.
