    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.

        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.
