Default New tires/wheels ??'s...

I just bought a set of the Mud Machine AT's 22x12x9 that people on here have been raving about, along with .190 wheels. I went to change them out last night and the old wheels did not just come right off after the nuts were off. I had to hit it lightly, just using my fist was enough to get the wheel off. When I went to put the new wheel on, it lines up, but does not go on. I tried using a rubber mallet, but I didn't put it all the way on in fear of ruining the threads on the studs. Can I drill out or file out the holes in the new wheels? What other options do I have? I was thinking if I take the stud out of the wheel hub itself, line the wheel up, then try to put the stud in that way it might work. I'm thinking out loud at this point......

Any ideas? Anybody run into this problem before?

Thanks,
Steve

file out the holes in the new wheels
I think this is your best bet.

My red labels were the same way, just get a round file and open the holes up a bit.
