Question Rear stock wheels from 2001 don't fit on 1995??

I went to swap my stock rims from the '01 Formula to the '95 Formula and the rear ones didn't fit. I found it really strange but neither the right nor the left rear wheel would sit flush against the hub!

Is that possible or is there some magic I don't know about?

I had the same problem with my 93 T/A.....I used a dremel on the wheel to make it work.

There is a hub difference between the LT1 an LS1, but I forget exactly what it is. That's normal unfortunately in this case.
