So I recently bought a used set of enkai's with some winter tires on them as my current all seasons are almost out of tread. Made sure the lug pattern matched, and when I went to put them on I could get one lug nut on and then the others were off by about a mm, if even that. Took it to a tire shop and had them try, they tried for about an hour but couldn't get it to fit either and were not sure why the rims weren't fitting as they should. I'm a broke college student who bought them trying to save money on tires and now I almost need to make them work. Any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated as I don't know what else could cause a tire to not fit other than the bolt pattern and bore size, both of which should work. I'm also using tuner lugs as the rims have a very deep lug holes.

See if bore of the wheels are too small. That would be the only reason for this to occur.

Is there any way to fix this? Since the center bore is fine it would be the lug bore

Kinda sounds like you got 5x112 instead of 5x114.3... you sure the dude you bought them from wasn't just blowing smoke to get rid of them?

So I contacted an aftermarket wheels shop near me and they said the same thing and offered to get the proper bolt pattern for me if I bring the rims in. So i'm gonna do that tomorrow and then if that is the case I will most likely just buy a spacer/adapter and get them mounted that way.
either way I will update here.

Sorry for not providing an update for so long, the rims are 5x112. So the kid I bought them from lied about the lug pattern and when I mentioned it he ghosted me. Does anyone know any good spacers/adapters I could use brand wise or otherwise?

Or should I not try to make them work and just try to resell them? I don't wanna cause any issues with vibration and what not

I was able to sell them on marketplace. Took a few months but finally got rid of them.
