Can't mount front vossen wheels
 
Ok, I am either really really out of it or the vendor on this forum sent me the wrong wheels, or it's a mistake on Vossens side.

I have a g37, 2009. We all know it takes a 5x114.3 right?

The back of my vossen cv1 matte graphite wheels has this: 5x112 790kg and right bellow 5x120 815kg.

The box said 5x114.3... But the wheel will simply not mount on top of the five bolts. It's as if it gets stuck on top of them. The rear fit just fine which I will take off now since I can't run them.

Please help :(

Do you have that little bolt that sticks out on the hub? This is done so you can't put the factory wheels on wrong since they're a staggered setup

Yes I do. So what does that mean? I have to remove the bolt?

Bolt must be removed. We all have on our G37s! 10mm bolt comes off and that's it.

The bolt to prevent installing rears on front

Duh, I knew it had something to do with it but at first it wouldnt budge, thought it was supposed to be there.
Thanks guys!

Maybe the wheel suppliers could put a little note w/ the wheel set if they know they're being sent to a buyer w/ this bolt issue. Or just a generic mounting guide that makes the buyers aware of this potential issue? Seems like there's been quite a few w/ this question lately.
