Default Question about H&R drm 20mm spacers installation!

I'm trying to install 20mm H&R DRM spacers all around. I've read from numerous sources on these forums that bolt on spacers that are 20mm+ have no problem fitting the front.

So I start with the front wheels today and notice that there is that extra stud sticking out next to one of the normal studs. My H&R bolt on spacers wont clear with that extra stud in the way.

Do you just remove that extra stud and plant the spacer on?

The "o" being the extra stud in the way.

Remove it. That bolt is useless. I think they use it to distinguish the front and rears

Thanks for the response. I'm realizing now that I get into this easy installation, I really don't have any tools to make this work lol. I'll do it another day
