Wheel Bolts for Spacers
Can you guys please verify that these are the right specs for these bolts? I'll be running 12mm front and 10mm rear spacers on the stock 18s. I assume 40mm around would work fine.

Here are your choices - it looks like 37mm or 41mm:

Wasn't sure if R13 would make such a big difference but I suppose it matters. How about these then:

I used the RAD 14mm x1.5 40mm shank R14 ball seat 17mm hex off amazon. For the rears and the 10mm spacers the bolts were too long on my car and made a ticking sound so I brought them to a local machine shop and had them shave off 2mm. They worked fine after.
I switched wheelsets since then and selling my spacers/bolts if youre interested. See here

Bought the 40mm set. Bought 12mm front spacers and 10mm rear. Everything installed correctly but the rear wheels are ticking. It's not the dust shield, so it looks like the 40mm bolts are 1-2mm too long for a 10mm spacers. Just an FYI!

It's very strange you guys are having ticking sounds from the 40mm on the 10mm spacers... mine didnt have that problem. Maybe Canadian cars are a bit different than US cars.
But yes, shave 1-2 mm off the rear bolts, and you will be fine. Easy fix.

Appreciate the suggestion but I'm just not a fan of buying used parts. Nothing beats opening a new package haha.
Yes, it's hitting the e-brake mechanism. It was the second thing I checked after checking the dust shields. I just made sure the e-brake was fully released and when I did that, the sound got quieter. The bolts are interfering 1-2mm with either one of the springs or the retainers. None of that should be fatal, since there is some built-in tolerance for assemble ease in the system. I will wait till the bolts get in tomorrow before I drive the car again though.
