What bottom bracket do I need?

I thought the Afterburner cranks were hollowtech II compatible but I bought a Shimano Deore bb and they wont fit as the axle is slightly too big at the bearings. It might tap in with a mallet though. Should it be that tight a fit?

    They use the same diameter axel but you might need some spacers.
