It's an odd fitment problem. The rims are 5 spoke rims and the cap is not round but rather molds with the rim. Since there are 5 spokes on of the bolts intersects one spoke. It is this bolt that is the problem. The cap locks down by snapping into a groove. There are 5 fingers on the cap that extend into the wheel. One finger is hitting the bolt.
Do your spacers fit snuggly on the hub? I have noticed that my rears tuck slightly more than the front does. This is noticable on a 7.5" rim with a 30mm offset. Most of the spacers I have seen are too generic to give me a comfy feeling. What did the longer bolts run you?
