As stated on my previous comments, I've installed 25mm spacers on the rear which work great with H&R's ingenuity (i.e. incorporating 20mm thick steel nuts inside the spacer itself and those nuts become receivers for the factory wheel bolts). However, I wanted to go 10mm in the front but they are too thin to accommodate the thickness of the nuts inside so I must either purchase longer bolts (only available in silver color from H&R) or use the stock OEM bolt loosing 20% of the strength. I'm wondering if there are black aftermarket 55mm lug bolts available?
