How to make cortex wheels spacers fit

[nreef]

Just got some extended studs, 25mm cortex spacers, and open end lugs, but after putting in the extended studs on drivers side I try to put on the spacer and there is about 1/8 inch of space between the spacer and the brake rotor, which cant be safe to drive on. It seems that the grease cap on the wheel bearing is preventing the spacer from going down all the way since there is no hole cut out for it. Is there any way to make these fit or so i need to order different spacers? And how does anyone make these cortex spacers fit with no hole cut for the grease cap?

Remove the grease cap. I've got the same spacers. Just used a flathead screwdriver and hammer to remove mine.

Thanks, did this and it work I was just hesitant because it said do not remove.
