Hubcentric rings needed?

I will be purchasing Enkei RPF1's shortly and are wondering if I need hubcentric rings for them. I'm getting conflicting information on this from multiple sources. Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry to jump in....I have from Robi "double hubcentric"spacers....can you guys educate me a bit? What is "double hub centric"

Are most of the usual Evo rims hubcentric? I assume this is the case if they are Evo fitment...

I got them because I wanted to widen the track on my Evo....I was going to use them on RPF-1's but could I use them on other Evo wheels?

How do most people feel about spacers? I wanted to both increase track and understeer and improve the looks....any feedback appreciated..

99% of the wheels on the market are not hubcentric, as most wheels are not made specifically for any car. Instead, they are a general size that happens to fit the Evo, among other cars

I just got some Fn01's and I am getting hub rings for it. They are cheap so why not. I have had rims that didn't vibrate w/out rings and I have had some that did need rings. For such low cost just get em.
