Measure your hub centre shaft, as you run a XI i beleive the length would be 12.5mm?
Then measure the length/depth of the inside bore on the rim. The depth have to atleast be the same as the hub centric shaft to slide on properly.

This is the problem some people have with 10mm spacers not working while most people get them to work, especially on XI cars

Soloutions are:
1 - Grind down the hub centric shaft 2mm
2 - get a 12mm hub centric spacer that fit over the stock hub centric shaft, your new wheel will fit the spacer.
