Default Axle Spacers

Need some help...I am putting the 18 inch wheels from an 09 CVO Road Glide on my 09 Ultra CLassic. For the life of me I cannot get the rear axle spacers in. I called the dealer and they said ALL 09 touring bikes used the same spacers.

Is it supposed to be this difficult to install these? This is the first time I've pulled the back wheel on this bike, so I don't really have any past experience to base this on as far as the spacers go.

Any help or suggestions would be great
