Default anyone have rims that are lug centric?

how are they compared to hub-centric? Do you feel vibration when you drive?

all you have to get are hubcentric rings (little plastic black rings from a local tire shop will even do the trick) and badabing badaboom its like having hubcentric wheels.

yeah, absolutely. some people who just don't know better who dont care dont put hubrings on.

imo, very stupid tho, because your car shakes pretty noticeably at higher speeds (highway/freeway).

I have heard of lug bolts breaking from not using the hubcentric rings. I use the rings, so I don't worry about it.
