Advan Model 5, hubcentric ring?
I purchase a set of Model 5 last year and didnt decide to put them on the car until winter was over... well I got them put on and my shop guy said, we put them on for you, it drives fine but recommend you get some hubcentric ring for your mazda.
First time i heard of that and it didnt come with the wheels. Is there a Advan vendor or member with Model 5's on the forum that can help me with this? I'v search everywhere and havent found much luck finding the diameter. Any help will be great appreciated.

thanks so much Zephir. Congrats, the model 5's are my all time favorite wheels, you're going to love them.
What size did you get? Just out of curiosity...

T5's are the replacement for the Model 5.

I ordered my T5s last year from Vivid, called them and they gave me the info on the hub size/difference between OEM and I got the rings. My tire shop last year also said it should be fine without them though, but i got them.....however....
see my thread a few posts up concerning potential (not 'official, but potential) issues with them and the T5s.

It could be a nature of cheap hubcentric rings or a bunch of factors, but after one summer of using em, i think you'll be fine w/o em. Just torque your wheels properly and make sure you bolt em on using the right pattern.
