Default Escalade rims on b2200!?

I know you can throw Escalade rims on the b2200s. The problem Is the hub is too big for the hole on the actual rims.....How do I fix?

Take them to a machine shop and have them open up the hub opening on the wheel.

That's what I got planned...Anyone know the measurement on how much It needs to be opened up or the size difference?

Best way is to measure the hub on your truck and open it up slightly larger than that.

Go to the local parts store - like Pep-boys and get some spacers. Then the wheel will sit out far enough from the hub flange. I got Nissan alloy 15" wheels on mine and thats what I did.
