Help on RIMS

Not too familiar with rims... but I have a TRD rims i would like to put on my civic. When I went to the shop it didn't fit. Is there a way to make them fit? something to buy? or is it just impossible?

thanks,

Re: Help on RIMS

How many lugs? What's the size? Aftermarket Springs?
Really, what is your question? Saying they don't fit is kind of flat... If you say how they don't fit, like if they rub, or too big, not enough lugs, so on.
Let us know, and i'll try to help you out.

thanks for the reply.

i took the rims to the shop and when they tried to slap em' on there it seems like the middle part doesnt fit perfectly. I'm not sure about rubbing. Its 4 lugs. Heres a photo. SOrry not too familiar with car stuff.
