LeMans,



Did you use the stock wheel bolts after you installed the spacers, or get new?

30mm at all 4 corners?

Thanks,
Rodric

Spacers are metal plates that fit between the rim and the brake rotor (where the wheel bolts up to) and they are to push the wheel further out. The purpose is generally cosmetic (giving the vehicle the appearance of a wider stance), however it can also be used to get the right rim offset if you are using non-stock rims.
