Default Axis Mod Maxis - Rear Lugs too large - what did U do?

My rear lugs are too large to have the center cap sit flush. Discount Tire says "these are as small as they make em" - I doubt it since tons of people have these. So - what did you do? They suggested grinding this and that, but I don't want to.

They are Gorilla Splintline (?) lugs. Any help is appreciated!!

They are the same exact lug nuts for the TC. I have them on my car right now. When I sold my wheels from my xB. I had a second set that I used on my current car my TC.
