Rear Wheels on Front......Extended Wheel Lugs...???
Managed to get a pair of rear wheels to put on the front and organised 5mm spacers........What length wheel studs/bolts do I need to get....???? I'm not with the car at the moment, so cant take off a stud and measure it up to see what the standard size is and then plus 5mm.......Help.
Standard is 25mm which is the threaded length. You would need 30mm bolts.
I used a 30mm, but with a 3mm spacer. Luke @ TireRack.

if you seach for this topic, you will find my post, where someone on the board (I forget who) got me extended lugs in black (w/s putting caps on). If you would like that and cant find my thread, pm me. thanks

I'd like to know that, too. I had looked to no avail. Keep me in the loop!

I'd like to know as well as I plan to do this as well in the near future.
You should use 3mm spacers, not 5mm. The extra 2mm will prevent your wheels from indexing properly on the hubs, leading to wobble and vibration. Do a search on this. Widely documented.

"Is it the sounds that make a BMW a BMW? A BMW is designed to be heard, felt, experienced. So our engines sing. Our steering talks back. And we insist on offering manual transmissions in nearly all our models for drivers who crave them. The result is an almost telepathic oneness with the car. Just as surely as you can hear a BMW, a BMW hears you."
Would I need extended wheel lugs when upgrading from my stock M-Pars to bored out "Style 101 M's" in the size 20x9 (fronts) & 20x10 (rears) with ET24mm all around ?
