Just picked up some new road shoes for my wife. There is no way the front bolt will reach the threads. On one shoe I can't even get the bolt started with the metal insert (part of the cleat) removed.

These are Diadora shoes with a little plate built into the sole that slides around. The front set of threads for a Shimano cleat is really far from the bottom of the sole.

Any ideas?
