Hub ring a tiny bit too small...will it cause problems?

I want to try to fit wheels from a Scion TC on to my Subaru Legacy. The bolt pattern is the same, the offset will work ok...but when I did more research I found that the Scion wheels are 54.1mm hub ring and the Subaru is 56.1mm. Other than test fitting them to be sure, is this totally impossible to make them fit, if the hub ring is 2mm larger on my subaru?

Also, the OEM Hex size on the Scion is 21mm, and the Subaru is 19mm. I figure the smaller lugs should hold the wheel on just fine...but it's the hub ring that is my concern.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

If you think it's worth it you can bring it to a wheel shop to machine that 2mm. IIRC I got a quote for around $200 for a set of 4 from panthers but don't quote me on that. But I think it's safe to say that it wouldn't be worth it for some average looking wheels/fitment
