03 Sedan rims won't fit 03 coupe?

I bought my G-coupe with aftermarket rims on it and I wanted to put stockers back on. I picked up a set of stock sedan premium six-spokes, the same style that the coupe comes with, and lo and behold they won't fit. Seems the back of the wheel hasn't got a large enough hole to fit around the hub and line up flush.

Am I out of luck completely or they just not interchangeable? This is a real kick in the nuts after getting and mounting tires and everything

They should fit, maybe you forgot to remove your hubcentric rings for your aftermarket wheels. BTW, the sedan version of the 17" wheels is not the same, not even close. They are 17x7+45 and will be horribly sunken in. I know because I use them for my winter wheels

Ah that's terrible. I'll probably just sell them w/the tires and all and get some actual coupe wheels. I didn't realize they were narrower. Thanks.
