help with new wheels, maybe center bore problem

Here's my problem, I just bought some aftermarket rims off my friend who drives a sc300, here's their specs

"Both SC coupes' bolt patterns are 114.3 x 5, stud design, with 12 x 1.5 threading and 60.1 bore. The stock offsets are +50mm."

I believe this is ours

15 X 6 5X114.3 12mmX1.25 66.1 H

when I was installing the rims they went on my left driver's side okay, but when i got to the front passenger's side, 4 of the bolts u could feel but one specific hole would not seem to pass a bolt fully through. I'm guessing either the wheel was made with the center bore of 60.1 and it won't flush my stock hubcentric ring or something else is wrong. My friend told me this happened to him and he went to a rim shop and they took off the hub ring on the car, i've heard about vibration problems and hopefully there's another way to solve my problem besides moving my ring.

Can anyone help me? Thanks.

the rims are mille-miglia evo 5's

it could be a few different things maybe the lug bore is too small. Also what specs is your hub ring???? Your hub ring should be (the center bore of the MM evo5)x66.1.

post up more info if you have it.

the lugs fit fine into the holes, like I said, the left side fitted fine but on the right passenger side it one of the lugs didn't go in or something. the evo5 bores should be large so they can fit numerous applications. A lot of the people on the org have em so I dont' get why they don't fit. I'm gonna check again tonight when I get off work, measure the size of the rim bore, other than that might be the problem what else could it be?

i went home and looked at the rims again and saw the hub rings. It was a ***** to take out, 2 of them i had to dremel in half in order to get them out but it's done! thanks for the help.
