    Lug Bolt Length With Spacers

    Hey all I searched lug bolt 5mm spacer and came up empty. Do I need extended lug bolts with a 5mm spacer because it seems that not enough threads are catching for my taste. Are there any other BMW's that carry the same bolt diameter thread size etc... but longer?

      Motorsport Hardware should be able to source anything you need. Contact them!

      Personally I'd go with a stud kit.

        Stud kit for sure. Waste of time and money having a bunch of different length lug bolts for different spacers because don't forget, if the lugs are too long, they hit what's behind it.

            Another vote for Motorsport Hardware. When it comes to customer service Ryan is second to none.

                I actually work in a large machine shop. Could I make my own m12 studs if they were grade 8? I can also turn the angle into a lug nut, seems I may be able to save some money there. I would also like to know a good length that you all are running for small spacing or no spacing at all, thanks.
