Hubcentric Rings

I just got some new wheels and am planning to have them mounted on Friday with some KDW's but I still need some hubcentric rings. Now the guy wrote me and said the specs on the wheels were 54.1mm Inside Diamter and 73.1 Outside Diameter. So what size hubcentric rings do I need? I was reading the Mini was a 56.1mm Inside diameter, does this mean im screwed? Thanks.

Something's not right there... The wheel should only have one diameter. There's only one hole.

Edit: Actually that smaller hole is probably where your center cap would go. Chances are you need a 56mm to 73mm hub ring.

56mm is the size of the shoulder on the hubs.

73mm is the hole on the wheel
