H&R Wheel Spacer..Help!

I just recieved my new H&R wheel spacers(20mm) and began the install. The spacers fit perfectly in the rear but the front is a different story. It seems the front axle has a small but definite shoulder near the rotor hub preventing the spacer from seating properly.

Has anyone else come across this problem, I thought I had done my homework with this mod but apparently not. Any suggestions?

is SOLD
it should be universal for the front and rear. 20mm spacer is a pretty big spacer.

I used toh ave problem with the front, you have to machine the inside of the spacer, i machined it as thin as it can get before u could actualy warp the centric ring.
