Default ECS Spacers and Black Optics Wheels - HELP

Good afternoon.

I had two Audi B8 (2012 and 2015) with factory 19" peelers. I ordered the "flush" wheel spacer kit from ECS and it worked great.

I recently leased a B9 with the black optic package and went to have my local garage install the spacers. This is the same garage that installed the spacers previously without a problem.

I was told that the bolts were not long enough and that they we "not the right taper at the end of the bolt". I spoke to ECS and they said that the original bolts should work and that Audi uses "ball seat" bolts on all their wheels.

Anybody run into this same issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Mike
