2011 E350 Coupe Rim Hub Centric Rings?

Can you anyone tell me what size centric rings I need to order for my vehicle? I upgraded to Lexani 20 inch wheels, still have a slight vibration after wheel balancing and im told to add hub centric rings to fully eliminate the shake. The problem is what size rings fit the hub of our vehicles? If anyone can help that has dealt with this or perhaps some of you wheel experts?

Only MBs - the best or nothing
MB's hub is 66.56mm. You need to find out the center bore of your wheels.

i.e. if your wheels' bore is 73mm, you need 73x66.56 (or 73x66.5, or 73x66.6) centering rings.

Amazed you were sold aftermarket wheels without centering rings, unless of course they're already (some are and all replicas are) made for MB's center bore of 66.56, then problem is elsewhere.

Three,

Thank you so much for the info. You see the problem is I got the wheels through a second hand source and hence did not have the rings (although I made the dumb assumption that the wheel was a universal fit on the MB bore)
