I've just had a set of these delivered and I can't fit them!

They come with a standard length of studding for fitting (~8mm inc thread) and this wont fit through the hollow wheel spindle. It fits from one side and goes almost all the way through but the hole on the other side of the spindle is narrower. Just a little too narrow.

This on both wheels. I'm a little bemused as to why the hollow spindle isn't the same diameter the whole way through. Has anyone else encountered a problem like this when fitting bungs?

How did you get round it, thinner threaded bar, how thin? Is it possible to widen the hole on the spindle by 1mm or so without weakening it?

Any help appreciated.
