Default And I thought I was the only one!
I've had bad 'spare tire bounce' ever since I got my tracksports installed.

I'll have to look into this too after I get my car back. Hope you find a good solution.

Default The answer to your problem: The plastic spacer goes UNDERNEATH the wheel, not on top of it. That's
why you don't have enough length to engage.

Default To clarify: the spacer thingamabob acts as a restraining ring around the slight recess surrounding
the hole. It prevents lateral motion of the bolt when it's secured in the hole.
