    If you have disc brakes, then you need to use wheels that were designed for disc brakes. Or if you have a clearance problem you could use wheel spacers. Hope this will help you.

    I presume you are talking about the center hub/center of the wheel fitament.

    Best thing would be to get the correct wheels.

    Next best thing to do would be to mill down the wheel.

    DO NOT mill down a rotor to fit a wheel.
