Hub Centric Rings

I am putting my wheels back on now that the winter is over and I noticed that I am missing one of my hub centric rings. Will I be ok for a few days until I can get one? I have searched online and all that I am coming up with is that I will get some minor vibration.

Thanks in advance for the help guys

You should be OK to drive it though.

wow! that was too easy! I like how you can put in the auto and the wheel manufacturer and they tell you exactly what you need!

thanks!

You should be ok, just drive easy on them and make sure the lugs are nice and tight. Remember that the ring is what transfers all the weight from the hub to the tires. Without it, you are putting all the weight on the lugs, which are not designed for heavy sheer loads. It will hold up, but be very careful, especially with potholes, curbs, etc.
