yeah in 97 they went to a smaller hub. take a file and file down the inside of the rim. you dont need to remove much a few sheets of papers worth. you will need to do it to all for in order to rotate your tires. i have done it with several sets of rims.

i used a dremel and shaved the inner hub ring off too. The hole between the lug holes that is... the rims center around the studs anyway so you have no worries. Good luck, you'll love them

Yea, you got to shave it a little bit. I just put on my Vette Rims, got it shaved a little bit, but they were still a little too tight, and it stripped a couple of Lug Nuts and Wheel Studs.

just dont do what i did. i bolted up my z06 wheels and didnt notice that they didnt slide on all the way. i was too excited to get them on to notice. i went for a ride and noticed that my wheels were wobbling all over the place. went home, put a grinding wheel on the drill and took some out. everythings fine now.
