Default Problem fitting my new 19" AZA's......

I just purchased 4 A.Z.A Z2's for my 05 Touring (non Brembo) and they are not fitting! There is a bolt between two of the lugs on the wheel well that is stopping the wheel from sliding into place onto the lugs. The specs are:

F - 19X8.5 5X4.5-38
R - 19X9.5 5X4.5-38

They were ordered from WheelMax.com and should have been verified to fit my car before ordering/shipping. I am now waiting on a call back from the service manager.

Has anyone heard of this problem before? It is definitely the bolt between two lugs on the well stopping the wheel from going on.

Help!

So basically you're complaining to a good company that you don't know what you're doing.

If I had $1 for as many times this question was asked, I would have had my turbo by now.

im sure he means +38 offset, since they are aza wheels... and still.. they are bad offsets, hes gonna need near a 20mm spacer just to get them to fit right.

take off the brake rotor holder bolt. It's there to keep the rotor in place when you take off the wheels. Wheel lugs secure the rotors in place after you put on the wheels.

BTW, dont mind these guys in here. They always laugh at "what they think stupid" questions. But to me, the only stupid questions are the one you don't ask.
