You could go longer and have a shop cut them for you. Why not give a call to one of the sponsors here on the board that sell lugs and get the correct ones from them.

Trying to figure out proper bolt length is a PITA. Every wheel, spacer setup is different. Sucks, but only way to know for sure is to stick in bolt in your wheel with the spacer on and measure. There was a thread that showed the proper length of how much should be sticking out, but I forget the exact measurement.

I had a huge hassle with mine. To be correct I contacted the wheel maufacturer and got the hub depth specs and asked them what they recommended. From there I compared it to factory thread (in hub) lenghts and added the two - they cam out to within 1mm of what the wheel manufacturer suggested. Huge hassle but everything should be okay now, guess I find out on the 18th when the car goes in.

I posted it original. It's between 7/8 - 1" which is approx. 6.5 -7 turns.

Hope this helps. Mike

actually, a quick update. im about to order 10mm spacers with bolts from radusa. what do you guys think? or should i get radusa bolts and stick with H&R spacers

EDIT: wes!! lol the guys has 12mm spacers in stock. i just looked at your pics and 10 looks decently flush. 12mm isnt that much more but i dont want it to look too out there kind of thing.

What's up Brian? I think you should be good with the 12mm. It won't make a hug difference. If you want to be safe, go with the 10mm H&Rs.

Not off the top of my head. I have it written down somewhere at work. Remind me tomorrow and I'll search for you.
