Volk GT7 wont clear stub on front hub, HELP!!!!

yeah, just as it says. my 19x8.5 volk GT7 wont clear the little stub in between the lugs on the front hubs. there are cutouts in the backside of the wheel to allow it to pass, but the stub still rubs the inside part of the cutout, not letting the wheel go on.

here is the thing i am talking about, its red on top...


here is the cutout behind the volk wheel, you can see where it is rubbing on the inside part...


here is the stock 18. you can see the cutout opens up all the way and allows the stub to pass...


what the hell should i do!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

i probably have no idea what i am talking about because i do not have aftermarket wheels, BUT

I think you remove that bolt. there is no need for it except to make sure you don't put your rear OEM wheels up front.

OR i can take those wheels off your hands and you won't have to worry about the rubbing issue

i'd wait for someone who have aftermarket wheels to post before you do anything, but if memory serves me right, you remove that bolt.

Yeah, just remove it. 10mm socket if memory serves. They are only there to prevent you from putting OEM rears on the front since they are staggered. If you want to put on aftermarket wheels, you gotta remove them.
