thread length on a standard bolt is 28mm so +20mm gives you 48mm

I've juts seen this thread and have to add.

20mm spacers will be 10mm per side so you need approx 38mm bolts (if you have 48mm don't fit them as they could damage the abs rings!)

Didnt have the cash in time to buy doms spacers,  but i think 10 and 15mm is more what i want it is a daily driver and ferry alot of sh!t about i dont want scrubbing all the time with the 20mm spacers


Are these 10mm hubscentric spacers on ebay come with the proper lip to sit the wheel on?
