So I guess it's the hub size that matters and nothing to do with the wheels you use, right? Pretty simple. I guess it works like those dyna beads but you don't have to put them inside the tires. Slick.

The rings aren't really obtrusive looking, if you just painted the outer ring black they would just about disappear.
Pardon the dirt...

I have to say I've been really impressed with mine. Driving the gravel road to the barn leaves rocks stuck in the tread and not all sling back off at highway speeds. The Centramatics solved that little imbalance problem!

One thing I can't find is what they are made with. I'd LOVE to find it's stainless.... but I doubt it. I worry how long they will last up here in the rust belt.

They're steel, galvanized or zinc coated.
They have a 5 year warranty on them.

Just purchased a set for my soon to be delivered F450 and looking forward to the results. I may not have time to install them before driving it to Alaska from Iowa but will have them on as soon as I get it up here.

Hand them to the salesman and say "put these on while we sign the paperwork".

If you have to, ship them to the dealer before you go to get it and have them install them.
