Rim doesn't fit on hub.

[80Grand_LeMans]

Not sure if its called a hub for the rear. havent tried the fronts yet. But anyway. The diameter of the opening that fits over the rear "hub" on my new rims is larger and doesn't sit in it right. I figured by putting the mag lugs on it would automatically correct it but it didn't. It basically sat a little off centered and I am thinking that would cause a problem. anything to fix that?

Hey Lemans,
Are we talking about thr Firebird Weels? I can't imagine an issue of them not fitting your car,must be something really stupid going on there! Like bigbad said send some pics,someone will figure it out!

They ended up fitting fine. I went out to go get pictures and decided to put the rears on because they had good tires. They ended up fitting perfect once the lugs were tightened. I didn't tighten them all the way last time because I wasn't sure I had the right lugs. But they fit fine now.

Ok...if you say so... =D>

Hopefully everything seats right It's possible the expected clearance was tight, and rust on the drums made the hub just large enough where the wheel wouldn't seat properly without some coercion.

They ended up fitting fine. I wasn't tightening the lug nuts all the way (i thought they were tight enough) on my first test fit. Once I started tightening them down they centered themselves and fit perfect. I drove around with them for a month or two and they were fine.
