Hey guys, i just bought a set of rims for my MKIV Jetta. The hub on the rims is larger than the hub on my car. I dont have Hub centric rims, would it be ok/safe to drive on these for a day or two until I get hub centric rings? Do I need hub centric rings? Any help is appreciated, thanks guys! ---

Call that wheel and tire place in east greenbush. they are right on that main street. No idea the name. They have the big garage in the back where you can just drive up in line, and they do straight up Nascar like wheel/tire changes for you… the office is in the building right in front. They have boxes of rings with all different sizes in the garage, I have gone there with the size ring I need and the dude just fished around in the box and found 4 for me, walk out for like $10. ---
