Default Urgent wheel advice needed!

Hi

So i just bought a spanking set of Turinis from LeeP, however im having trouble fitting them

On my front hubs i have this yellow thing meaning the wheels wont go on. What the heck is it????

Also the nuts that were supplied are a different size to my standard brace? Searching on here i think the nuts may be 17mm and the standard nuts/brace i guess are 19mm? Can anybody confirm?

Standard nuts are indeed 19mm, so if your brace is too big for them I'd wager they're 17mm nuts.
