What will I have to do to get my Coy's to fit...

My polished Coy's C5 wheels are due to come in this week. I have a '64 C10,but I've converted to 5 lug discs and rear from a '71.

What all will I have to do to get them to fit?

I've heard of the center cap issue,and the valve stem possibly hitting the rotor. Anything else?

I guess this could possibly called "The Official Coys wheel problems" thread.

They're hot looking wheels though! I'm getting excited!

What size wheels did you order? My 18's fit with just a short valve stem. It was close, but they do clear.

17x8 and I meant hit the caliper and not the rotor. I had seen the cap spacer thread,but it's worth looking at if anyone hasn't seen it.

Here's another thread. It looks like lots of work to me:
