Rims for towing
I'm looking to get some new rims soon and wanted to know if I have to use hub centric rims. All the rims I'm looking at are NOT hub centric. Will that be ok to tow with a 9,000-10,000 trailer? Only towing once a month for like 60 miles round trip. If I check the lugs all the time it should be good right? And the truck is an 03 X v10 4x4. Thanks......

Does anyone know where to find a nice selection of hub centric wheels? Seems like finding them online is a damn treasure hunt.
