Default Fikse ARO'S just mounted..small problem

I bought the Fikse aro's, had them mounted, but ran into a problem with the special lugs that were supplied...This on an A4 Quattro 2.8...the lugs were about 1/8 inch too long and could not be tightened on the fronts...the backs fit fine..it has something to do with the CV joint in the front and the front hub being a little more narrow..I put the standard lugs on the fronts temporarily..the machining of the wheel doesn't really allow the correct seating of the standard lugs...Fikse said they with send me the correct lugs shortly...All in all, the wheels are outstanding both in appearance and quality....
