Nope - at least not with my original Rivs - the later repops may be different, or you may have a bent/tweaked rim, or the tires may the problem.

FYI - the "real" Rivs look like this with the smooth outer rim (and interlocking lower case "r" logo on the center caps), whereas the repops have the lip to attach clip-on weights (not advised in any case & they look tacky).
