    I was needing to know what these rings are called. I cant seem to find them anywhere (probably not using the "correct" term.

    *see attached pic*

    what is the proper term and where can I get them?
    (for dump/ vocational truck that regularly drive and run into tall curbs and very narrow wheel washes..
    Thanks!!! truck-tire-noise.jpg

    We don't use these in the states. If the nuts break off, oh well. Fix it please Mr Shop.

    Yeah that helps, I was able to find some but not in the US. The ones I found were truck specific, probably wouldn't even fit the ones here in the state due to stud spacing.
