problem solved "wheel bolts sticking out"

Alof of people with aftermarket wheel have had the problem of their wheel bolt heads being too long and sticking out (especially in rears).
I had this problem with my iforged wheels and even moreso with my kinesis f110.
with the kinesis f110 it was a known problem which they corrected with the new batch of wheels.
I had a machine shop cut down the heads of the bolts just enough to be able to still torque up to 96ft-lb and not strip the bolt head.
I stole the before pic from another members post (sorry I never took my own).
