yeah should be fine mate, even if you get catching issues its as simple as selling the 20s and buying some 10/15mm ones, but if your not lowering after -60mm you'll be fine.

No, because the adaptors have rings on each side to hold onto:
inside > the hub
outside > the wheel
cant be slimmed, just need to get another set.
I assume you know you need longer bolts?

no the set ive got has 8 holes and a set of small bolts, the small bolts bolt the spacer to the hub. the other four holes is where i assume my wheel bolts bolt into? would that be correct? sorry if its a bit dim, and 20 questions! lol

yes, small allen key bolts bolt directly onto your existing hub holes (where the wheels would usually bolt onto.
Becuase i bolted porsche wheels on, i needed thicker and longer bolts, i dont know how it works with standard spacers, if you just directly bolt the wheels to the spacer with original bolts or if you need to longer ones, someone like Mark (m0rk) will know as he has spacers on his vario.
Hope this helps a bit.

mine bolt right through to the disc, using long bolts - but I did have 20mm with about -60mm drop on my coupe & that caught a lot. 15's should be fine though
the ones ive got are 20mm, my wheels should bolt to the spacer the same as it did to the hub tho, without using longer bolts, shouldnt it?
when i get some coilovers i wana drop the back about 50mm, will this still rub?
cheers

gonna be doing the rears after winter.. (still got those estorils to put on) so will be kicking them out a fair bit, methinks
I would guess so. bolt the spacer to the hub, then the wheel to the spacer - use enough copper grease, and make sure and make sure some more that the spacer is secure.
I think they'll still catch though.

just spoke to a local chap (mechanic) and he asked about my car and what mods im doing. i told him panel filter and so on. i then said about the spacers and he believes that they are not any good for the car. is this correct?

oh right, is the 20mm a bit of an over kill? only wanted 15mm ones but couldn't find any hubcentric ones, i want sum that bolt to the hub, and the wheel to the spacers. thats what mine are like now but i 20mm. 
dunno what to do

Check out my reply (and pics) to you in your coilover thread.
I've got the Weitec GTN kit, lowered approx 30mm from original Cupra height and now fitted with Delta Mics 20mm hubcentric spacers (spacers bolted to hub, then wheels bolted to spacers).
I've had no rubbing issues, with or without passengers.
Oh well, in the market for some glass now after some kids (I presume) chucked a golf ball through the drivers side rear window.
bit of a pisser, and I'm glad that there's a dispersal order in my area, so there's no groups of kids, else I think I'd go on a **** kicking exercise.
