I am looking to space my Wheels out approx 10mm at the rear and 5mm at the front - I am running BBS Solitude 15's so do I need longer bolts at the back and if so what size and where the heck do I buy em' from!!!........
Sorry for the terrible question :whistle:
-
10mm longer than standard. So go take one out and measure the thread then add 10mm

What advantages do you get spaced with spaced wheels wouldnt that create a little bit of negative camber as it will creates a bit of distance away from the hub which will angle the will a little please correct me im a wheel spacer noob
-
Nope does not effect camber or anything. Won't effect handling or bearings at 10mm aside. Unless your et is like -20 then you've got problems with clearance.
If you want camber you need to get camber shims.

so its just a look then these spacers so hubcentric 30mm wont improve any handling at all

Any spacer above 5mm will need longer bolts.

Nope. Low centre gravity will make a huge difference though.
