I bought a set of new OEM H2 rims on EBay and had them powdercoated. Went to the tire shop to have them installed on my 06 to find they did not fit. Was there a change from the 03-05 to the 06 or was I given the big one by the EBay seller? They will not sit flush against the hub, won't slide over the center hole. It is more than just the PC layer. They just don't fit. Fortunately they checked before unmounting and mounting the tires on the PC rims. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Screwed in PA.

All true factory rims for all H2s should fit...also, it is a self centering wheel...

I'd post pics if I'd had a camera at the time, and had the faintest idea how to.

Well, I spent an hour getting the tire off and taking photos of the PC rim to show it hanging up on the hub but I can't post the pics. It gets rejected for being too many MB and it's only one pic. Anyone interested in 4 black PC rims?

As far as I know, there has been no change with the rims. I have the same set of after market rims on my 06 that I had on my 03 and my 05.
