I'm guessing you have something v-shaped or some kind of deep section rim? Forget about using those washers. And frankly, they are bulky, heavy, and don't work all that well. They won't do much to save your wheel if the wheel isn't solid without them.
BUT required for DT411/511....for the op...I have spare DT nipple washers...they will probably fit into the hole.
