Ran across these wondering if they're gonna work on a '13 MKS. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

They should be just about right. Front stock wheels need about 15-17mm less offset to be flush and this set will bring you out 14ish mm. Should look good.

Thanks!
For the hub rings where does it say the size of the hub on those wheels? I can't find the measurements.

It doesn't, I'm assuming they're 70.5 mm because those wheels are for a 15-21 mustang. I know those specific adaptors are made, I'd just like to know the best ones

The new wheels weigh 29.4 lbs, the stock wheels were 39.6, so yeah, cuts about 40lbs total. As far as being flush, I think another 10mm would be awesome, but I can't complain. Is there a difference in track width front and rear? The rears seem closer to flush.

Can you feel the " 40 " ? The Land Yacht should feel a little livelier.

Not so much, I think saving 40 lbs of rotating mass on a 3000lb car vs a 4500lb car would be much more noticeable ha.

If you're doing spacers to make them flush the rear usually needs about 5mm more than the front in my experience.

This I'm not sure of. Haven't measured those out.
