Sounds like you have bought 1/2" pedals when you were after 9/16".  If your cranks are for 9/16" pedals your not going to be able to use Snafu's on them, there is no adaptor.  You need to buy some new pedals.

take a look in the rs catalogue and you might find some suitable parts (reducers) to adapt them, id take a look in the pneumatic/hydraulics sections, if there are some that fit the bill they will probably only cost you a couple quid.

whether its all more hassle than its worth when a set of v8s can be had for about £20 from your lbs is your call!
