The wheels will fit over the studs but the PCD is different.  Sprites are
4" which is 101.6mm, enough to prevent wheelnuts from seating.  The sprite
also uses a much smaller stud.  If you have your hubs etc redrilled to take
a larger stud but on a 100mm PCD it should work providing the offset is
right
