I’ve bought a wheels mfg push in adapter to run a Shimano crank in a CAAD12 bb30a frame. Since it’s asymmetrical, I got the BBright adapter which should work on bb30a too. One side adapter is thinner than the other and it comes with a load of shims to take up any slack in the crank after fitting
Anyway, after fitting the push in adapters, there’s still nearly 10mm of axle left open to the air so I go and get the shims and they’re all 30mm ID. I’ve checked on their website and it says included are some 24mm washers

I do have 11 washers as per the “included” but they’re all the exact same ID (30mm)
Am I missing something or is it a dud?
They go on the outside of the adapter ie on the crank axle so they should really be 24, not 30
