I run 5 mm spacers all around and had to run longer bolts when I put my current 15" wheels one. I would have had to if I didn't though. I would assume if you change the factory wheels to most any alloys then you would need longer bolts.

same goes, i have 10mm (cant remember) spacers all round. where can i find longer bolts if i needed some?

I bought 16 new ones from a wheel and tyre shop in Thetford. If I remember right they were about 2 quid a piece. I just pulled off one of my bolts in the parking lot and asked if they had anything longer.

Don't bother with Halfords. They were a waste of time and insisted that they don't exist. Tried to sell me 16 locking lugs at 27 quid for 4. Motorspares in Mildenhall also were a complete waste of time. Decided then I'll never step foot in there again due to the sales person talking to me like I was an idiot. I made sure to stop back by and show them the new bolts after I bought them though.

True about halfords, they dont know anything apart from their own products in the store.

ohh and they tried making a fool out of me about a strut top tool
