I had the exact thing happen wiyh my 17in SSR GTI. The original front center rings were mixed up with the rears. I then contacted tire rack they sent me replacements but the fronts still dont fit flush against the hub. so I took the front rings off and it fits fine. I hope I am not driving dangerously but everything seems fine with no front centering rings.

 

First off if you receive four rings and they go on the car you have the correct rings. You may have the fronts in the rear and the rears in the front but they are correct. If the front wheel does not sit flush to the hub switch them. For some reason Honda uses center hubs larger on the front than the rear. It will not hurt the car or the wheels to run without the rings in the wheel.
The only use of the ring is to center the wheel.

The thing I want to stress is if your front wheel does not sit flush change the rings from front to rear and rear to front and you should be good to go. Remember the front hub is larger than the rear. Also if you have a question or problem with the fit give us a call.

The easiest thing to do is to remove the rings from the wheel and try mounting the ring on the hub alone. Its very easy to tell if its the correct ring or not when you do it this way

 

docofmind, you are correct.
