What are these?I have a rim which doesn't fit snugg on the lil circular housing of the hub/brakes.A mech @ L&D told me I should get centralizers to solve that problem and prevent lil vibrations in the ride...allyuh agree?

Good advice.
May be difficult to get in a store, so check your favourite machine shop to have them custom made.
Without it, the rim may move around on the hub, and may cause alot of vibration.

Good idea to get these made if not bought, it's called a Hubcentric Ring, this would ensure the rim fits snugly onto your hub thus eliminating the vibration and also taking unecessary stress off your studs.

Most rim shops should have them...They are either made of plastic or aluminum...You might get them for free if they have a box full of them...They give them away for free up here or for the most $5 for the set of 4...
