Spacer on hub?

[GorillaGrapplr]

I just bought new rims. I went to put them on the bronco but they won't quite fit. There seems to be some metal spacer tabs on the hub. Any way around these. Ordered rims from trail built fell like its going to be difficult to return.

Was tsyje bore size of your new wheels? Should be on the inside. Bronco is 93.1mm.

These are the rims I got

They really don't look like 108. I feel like they might have given you the wrong size. I would measure them.

Looks like Trail Built either listed the wrong bore size or sent you the wrong wheels.

Mistake is on them, hopefully they'll take care of you

Yah looks like it. OP I would measure or at least check the size one the back of the wheel.

They are about 1/2 inch smaller diameter than the Bronco. Did I read correctly that these were supposed to be a 108 bore?

That's what the specs you posted say. Looks like they sent the wrong wheels.

Sorry I'm being dense little frustrated. So reading specs they should fit?

Correct. They don't appear to match the specs.

So after further investigation it looks like the bronco rim has a second recess that the new rim does not. The bore size on new rim is bigger but not wide enough to clear the notches. What options might I have now?

That is definitely not the 108mm bore they had listed, so I would contact them right away. They have it listed incorrectly or sent the wrong ones by mistake. Either way they need to rectify the situation.

Just measured with micrometer it came out to 77.78mm

Yeah not even close. I would contact them and see what they are going to do to fix it.

If they fight me and wont fix the situation(Hopefully they wont) What other options do i have? Would a wheel spacer work?
