OK....they came today.....................
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/35713/img_2181.jpg"></center><p>Like them much more in person. Finish is great. 2 questions.......
1. how do I get the bolts in. I have a crossbar and I dont think the end will fit in the channel where the bolt goes in. Is that a stupid Q ??
2. What are these black plastic rings for, they sent 4 of them.
Thanks!!

You cannot use that goofy t shaped wrench thing any more..throw it away
Go down to sears and buy a breaker bar (about 18 inches in length)..and a good quality deep socket in 17mm size..with thin walls. I would also tape the outside of the socket with blue painters tape..so it doesn't mess up your wheels as you take them on and off. Keep this new breaker bar/socket in your car at all times.
The rings are most likely concentric rings to center the wheel on your hubs. Put them in on the inside of the weel..where the hole is..they should fit snugly in there.
Let me know if you have other questions.
