you can get the above spacers and the matching wheel bolts from:

http://www.ultimategarage.com
http://www.turnermotorsport.com

also from zygmunt's, maximillians, bekkers and a host of others.

the above url's also have wheel stud conversion kits which make changing tires in the cold & dark, not to mention the rain, a bit easier - don't ask how i found out.

To be precise the H&R 5mm and 8mm
spacers are hubcentric to the hub only, but do
not have the raised center portion that centers
the wheel and using these will not center the
wheels properly. I have a set of their 5mm ones
and none of my many wheels can reach the hub's
raised collar. I get a shimmy through the
steering wheel whenever i use them, but it
goes away when i remove them.

However, their 15mm and 20mm spacers do have the
raised center portion and do a fine job of
centering the wheel. These work well when
using FWD Volkswagen wheels on an E30.

My favorite VW performance shop sells H&R spacers
and longer lugbolts way cheaper than anyone else.
The H&R 4-lug VW spacers are the exact same part
number as the 4-lug E30 spacers as both cars share
the same bolt pattern and hubcentric hub size....

5mm spacers: $37.95 pair

8mm spacers: $44.95 pair

15mm spacers: $71.95 pair

20mm spacers: $74.95 pair
