Probably not worth the trouble. The '01 RK wheel has 1" ID bearings and center spacer, these would have to be changed to 3/4". He would need to have the side spacers made to fit. He would have to make sure the brake rotor is in line with the caliper. Also there is no provision for the speedometer drive on the '01 style wheel/rotor.
