Hubcentric are the best option for anything over 5/8mm really.

Nav mate, on the front you need 5mm with a 57.1mm bore, thats it, 5mm cant get hubcentric. Make sure right center bore though, not universal.

Then you can get your coilovers on.

See what you think, then if you want to space back out, get rear ones then. Bolt through hubcentric ones can be found from about 40 quid i think.
