Please excuse my ignorance as I'm new to spacers etc. I'm about to acquire 10mm and 15mm spacers and I am wondering what longer bolts I need. I know I'll need 10mm longer and 15mm longer bolts respectively over the original length but I don't know what length or what type the original bolts are. I have genuine audi alloys. Also can I get longer locking wheel bolts too?

Many thanks in advance!

Easiest thing is to take one out and measure it. Make sure get right wheel spacers with centre bore size correct and pcd. Also make sure wheel bolts you order have the right fitment too. I have 20mm spacers all round and believe there 50/55mm long threads.

There are only 2 types of bolt ones like a mushroom .. And the other is flat.. If your on standard bolts then you want the mushroom type .. Any good tyre place should have them

Yeah the ones I've bagged are 5x112 and 57.1! I'm sure I've asked about your alloys sizes and offset before and my alloys are quite similar. I'm now thinking I maybe should have went for 20mm... Haha

Looking up longer wheel bolts. I believe I need M14x1.5. I've also been told standard length threads are 27mm. So I need at least 42mm as I'll have 15mm spacers on the rear (10mm on the front)?

Ive been given these options though;

What ones do I need?
