Spacer Lug Bolts
Hi all. I'm running a 10mm spacer up front and a 5mm spacer in the rear. I keep reading that you can use the factory lug bolts for up to 5mm spacer, but what if I want to buy a new set of lug bolts? Would the lug bolts for the 10mm spacers be a problem for the 5mm spacers (I'm not too familiar with the mechanics of the discs & rotors). When I purchased my two sets of H&R 10mm spacers, they sent me extended lug bolts but they were in grey and they seem to be much more than 10mm longer than the factory lug bolts.
So... what is the factory length on the lug bolts so I can look to see about finding some lug bolts that are only 10mm longer or is that not going to happen? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

I know from experience that a bolt made for an 18mm spacer fits just fine with no spacer.

Cool. Then I should be able to get a full set of 10mm extended lug bolts without any problems. Just wanted to make sure I'm not bottoming out the bolt or damaging anything behind the bolts
