yes.
The standard bolts are only just long enough for the stock wheels.
The hub flange is only 10mm wide, so running 5mm spacers with stock bolts means you'd only have half the metal holding the wheel on.
I'd also suggest you stick to hubcentric spacers, usually in 10mm or higher. The little floating shim things are pretty crap and your wheel doesnt locate properly on the centre any more.
