Nope. But I know on my buddy's SS with the 11" wide GS wheels the center of the wheel won't fit over the axle hub. You may nee to take a Dremel typ tool and very slightly enlarge the "hole" in the wheel or bevel the edges slightly on th eaxle hub.

I had that problem with some random pair of 16" take offs. I just filed down the center of the wheel (by the axle hub like steve said). <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

i recently went to take my rear wheels off to do some installs, and i had a hard time getting them off. they took alot of tugging and pulling, unlike the fronts that just slid off with ease. anyone else have this problem with their wheels?
