Default Problem!
I got my Moda 19's today, but Tirerack for got to send me the adaptor for the bolts. My regular wrench will not fit in the housing to turn the bolts. Is there anyway I can fix this problem myself by buying another rench or do I have to wait for them to send me one. They said they can overnight it and get it here tomorrow but as impatient as I am, I want to put them on today! So, any solutions??

Sounds like you need a thin walled socket...Sears, or any hardware store should have these.

Default Thin wall socket...>>
I'm assuming they're 17mm like stock? By regular wrench, do you mean the one in the toolkit? (That's a fat one). Investing in a good socket and torque wrench is a good idea....
