As for installation, it's a piece of cake. Take off the wheel. Put the spacer on the hub. Bolt back up. If they are 5mm spacers then they don't require longer bolts. Next size up is 10, 12, 15mm or possibly higher (though you wouldn't really ever need higher). Those are hub centric and they should come with extended lug bolts. Same installation. Pop it on and reinstall the wheel.

If you have wheel studs (and they're long enough) you won't need the extended lug bolts.
Seems pretty easy!
Yeah only want 5mm, just so its a lil further away from the struts!
Was thinking of getting these
