Drive Shaft bolts Rubbin On end of Tranny

I am hookin up my drive shaft into my transmission tonite ( blacktop sr20 Into 240sx) and got it all bolted up and relized the end of the bolts are right up against the rubber on the end of the transmission where the driveshat goes into the tranny.. What do you think ? why is it like that ?
