I ran into this problem twice. On my CRX, the axles I used were from an unknown year civic and had an extra ring on the part which connects to the hub and caused the exact issue you're having. It should be easy to see this ring I'm talking about and it pops off with a screwdriver.

It also happened on an EF I was doing axles on but somehow it seemed to be his brakes locking up but only after I tightened the nut....

Ah, same axles? Weird. Maybe turn the car on and put it in gear, see if the wheels spin. I did this on the EF with the brake problem while it was still jacked up and eventually it all started moving properly.
