Default Installing new wheels

Is there anything I should look out for when installing new Wheels? Any electronics that might be tampered with when removing them?

As long as you are aware of the correct hub centric diameter and bolt pattern for your new wheels to fit correctly.

The 74mm inner hub is usually the Issue.


GM wheels have the same bolt pattern but most have a smaller hub diameter (70mm) so they don't fit.
