ok i posted before about how my wheels shake aroun 60 or so. well i was just wondering if you guys can tell by these pics if i have the right hub centric rings. they look close to me but i'm not sure how tight they really need to be. my next step will be getting them balanced again and have them use the weights they tape on in the middle i guess.

Is it supposed to be dented like that?

if your talking about the dent in the axle nut, its suppose to be there, its a crude way of locking the nut so that it cannot come off

What brand are your rims, because if they are cheap then that might be the case, or it could be your tires, or your centric rings are crap, Just check into all of that and see what you come up with

i had that problem, but it was attributed to the tires not being properly balanced.try that.

The hub rings look right, most likely it is the balancing...had the same problem and had them balance the wheel, putting the wheel weights in the inside of the wheel and to this day, no more vibration...

I agree that a wheel and tire balance is needed. Find a shop that can do a high speed balance.
As an aside, are the wheel nuts tightened in your pictures? If they are, I would get longer studs inserted. Or change the nuts to ones that fit. Looks like the rim is fairly thich and the nuts are just on by a few threads.
