ok so i bought new rims and i put them on. for some reason the back ones are making a wired noise on both side and from some reason it seems that the drums are lose on both side. if i put the old one back on and its fine and the drums are not lose what could this be. the rims are off a 02 tans am so it not like there wrong or anything .

Re: help please

Are you sure the rims were on properly? The reason I ask is because the center-hole on the late model rims is slightly smaller that they were on the older ones (pre 98 I believe), so they will not correctly fit onto our cars on the rear.

You have to grind a small amount out of the center-hole and it will fit just fine.

Re: help please

You'll have to dring down the wheel. I used a dremel on mine. Any tool similar to that will work. You dont have to take a whole lot off either.
