10 spokes on an LT1
10 spokes on an LT1 is there anything i have to do to make them fit in the hubs? ive heard of having to grind down the center caps on the axles a few hundreths ot tenths. but is that really necessary?

DO NOT MESS WITH THE HUB.
take off the center cap of the wheel. There should be small lip that is preventing the wheel from going on. It takes only a couple minutes with a metal file. if you have any questions just reply, i'll be on tech for a while.
i feel like an *** and a half 
i was sitting there grinding rust off the hub breathing in metal flakes and rust for nothing lol
i was even thinking about using the drill with the sand paper files to the lip on the rim.
about how much do i have to take off? until its flush or until i feel some play in the rim?
