Default ground controls with kyb gr2's

hey i used the search and found nothing, so no flames. on the ground control's and kyb 2's you have a rubber lining that goes inside the coilover sleeve, on the front they fit perfectly, but on the back they dont fit, anyone know a good solution, it would be really hard to trim these.. it seems like the rubber lining is just too think

yah, mine came with 8 large orings and 8 small ones *confused* what are all these orings for? i used the 8 large ones, but i have no clue what they want me to do with these smaller ones.. i guess the smaller ones are used for other types of shocks, guess it a universal kit.. but did you have the problem with the 2 rear split sleeves being 2 big?
