Hi guys,
Ok very simple I'm having some paint done shortly on my r, and while it's in I thought may as well freshen up the brembo's and there is not much room between our alloys and calipers, here comes a small 5mm spacer just for a tiny bit of clearance, will the oem bolts be fine to use on. Cheers.

A 5mm spacer will not have the edge or w.e it should be called the hub tip so you will have to secure the wheels only on bolts, which could cause vibrations at higher speeds plus 5mm wont make a noticeable difference. If you want to fit spacers id go atleast 10mm on front but you can go up to 15mm that will sit flush with the arch and looks really great. 20mm on rear and its perfect.
