Hub centering rings - help find source

Recently bought some used Rota wheels and new tires. Need to install them soon as my current tires are wearing way thin (not to mention I can't wait to get off my RFs!).

Problem...I need centering rings and 1010tires (the normal source recommended here on NAM) is sold out and their suppliers are sold out as well, estimating 8-12 weeks. WEEKS!

Any suggestions? I need O.D. 63.3 - I.D. 56.15 sized rings.

Discount Tires is a good source. 1010Tires.com has a huge selection as well.

First off, I noted in my OP that 1010tires was sold out. Second, I checked with several local shops and nobody had nuttin'.

All that said, I was asking for the wrong size. Seems the wheels have a hole AND a flange. I measured the hole...apparently the ring goes in the flange which is 4mm larger than the hole. I'll try again...

Seems if you ask for the right size, they are more common. Local Discount Tire has them....whew, pressure off.
