wheels didnt work?

I have a 93Z28 and i got a pair of ZR1 17 by 9 wheels. I put the wheels on today and the front went on with no problem. the rear wheels didnt fit on the hub, the hub was a little bigger than the wheel. So now i have to get the wheels milled out a little bit so it will fit SON OF A BITCH.

DAVE,

Re: wheels didnt work?

The interference is a common problem when trying to put "late" model wheels on the "early" 4th Gens. The interference is only a few hundreths of an inch. Easilly solved, as indicated above, by sanding, filing, or a quick pass with a Dremel. The wheels are centered by the conical lug nuts, not by the hubs. You just need to make sure you open the hole up large enough not to rub on the axle hub.
