You can just bolt them on and go--if you don't mind an occasional rub.
The 9000 wheels are wider than stock 900 and have a different offset. That puts them out 1" further than the 900 wheels. Rubbing is inevitable. The 900 rear axle also doesn't put the wheel directly in the center of the wheel opening, so it compounds the rubbing problem. The only sure-fire way around rubbing is to relocate the rear axle, run a narrow tire, a low-profile tire and/or all of the above.
