Strange tire update

Well, it turns out that I was sold the wrong hub rings ... the ones I got 
have an OD of 73 millimeters and I need 74.1 millimeters. The wonderful folks 
at Panther Custom Wheels are sending me the correct rings free (except 
shipping) even though I bought the tires and wheels used from some 3rd party 
tire shop on consignment.  They gave me a little hint since they feel cars 
like ours that use bolts are tougher to get right on.  Scott at Panther 
suggested wrapping the rings a few times with Teflon tape to make sure they 
seat snugly.  Thanks to all that responded to my past ravings and 
rants...will let you know how they feel when they get on with the right rings.
