Hey Man, like 5 spacers and 8 to 10 cm studs is going to put you in the cemetary.

This is definatly not the way to go to achieve what you want.
You need to get different offset wheels, I have 205 x13s on the front of mine no spacers no sweat.

Or look at getting an engineering shop to make you some bolt up spacers,where studs are built into the spacer.
If you look up wheel adaptors on Ebay there are often guys selling exactly that sort of thing.


Anyway i have engaged an engineering firm to manufacture suitable spacers for me

Please help me i have a problem with my 205/50/13 tyres. I have no problem with the rear as such but my main problem is the front. I bought some longer studs but are not long enough to accomodate like 5 spacers. I have seen a few dattoes with wider rims and 'am thinking how they acheived that. If there are indeed longer studs like say 8 - 10 cm or some alternative spacer please let me know. By the way the car is a 1200 coupe.
