Hubcentrics only start at 13mm as it's impossible to have a hubcentric lip on anything less than the hub lip if you know what I mean, these increase the centre bore foooo. Not to mention they're £120+

Hmm 1. 13mm is stick out too much dont you think? 2.£120+

pick your price and go for it, 5mm will be fine using your standard lugs and won't be hubcentric, 13mm is the smallest hubcentric spacer as far as I know

edit: don't get the shim type ones at the start, try ebay aswell, anyone that stocks spacers should have bolts aswell

[Joshbm]

sweet, know where i can get longer bolts and spacers?
