if your not boring them you'll have to grind the tabs off the rotors upfront and grind the hub off the rotors on the rearend. You'll also need to get some bulge acorn lug nuts.

Alright man all you have to do is grind down the little nubs on the front and back hubs. When yu take your wheel off of the front you should see I think or small little nubs coming off of the hub near the studs... Just take a grinder ans grind them down as smooth as possible till they are all gone that will allow your wheels to but up against the hub like they should. The fronts are smaller than the backs, but you need to do this on all of the wheels... You will see what I'm talking about when you pull your wheels off. You have to get them all smooth essentially not ther so that the wheel will sit on there evenly and doesn't woble. Sorry no pics, but pretty self explanatory.

Just a suggestion.... remove the lug nut studs before grinding. Doesn't matter how careful you are, you will end up nicking a few. Usually, you can put a lug nut on until its flush with the end of the stud, then tap them thru with a hammer.

or if you're careless you might just have yourself a 4 or 5 lug conversion,lol.
