Default Hub Centric Rings w/ Aftermarket Wheels?

Anyone using hub centric rings with their aftermarket wheels? I'm going to be running 20" wheels and was wondering if it's something I should buy and have the shop install before they install my wheels. I've never had a car that required hub centric rings so this is new to me. Maybe I should get them anyway for peace of mind in knowing my wheels are truly centered on the hub rather than being lug centric.

I have a set on mine. I had problems balancing aftermarket wheels and the vendor sent me a set at no cost. They corrected the problem.

Deekum, I just read that TSW wheels come with the rings so thanks for confirming that. I guess I won't need to buy them after all.

Mine also came with the wheels, since I had them I figured why not use them. Not sure of the effect of not using them.

I did have friend tell me he got a lot of vibration with new wheels (he did not put them on, but it corrected itself when he put them on).
