Default Will 02 Fatboy Rear Wheel fit on 04 Heritage Classic

About to purchase a set of 2002 Fatboy wheels. These will be going on an '04 Heritage Classic.
Is there going to be an issue with the rear wheel spacing, or rotor, since in '03 they went with the 150 tire?

OK, here is what I have found out so far.
The wheels are the same for years 2000 to 2006...except that in 2003 they moved the hub casting 3/32" over, to fit a 150 rear tire.

So, 2000 to 2002 wheels are for 130 tires, and the 2003 to 2006 wheels are for 150 tires. Those with 2000 to 02 bikes, can use the 2000 to 2006 wheels, but those bikes within 2003 to 2006 can't use the 2000 to 02 wheels without some modifications.

What I can't find, is what modifications will make these wheels work?
