I will need new, longer wheel bolts if I add spacers to my Classix correct? Or are OE bolts fine to a point (AKA 5mm).

Also, what mm spacers will make my Classix (offset 54) flush with the fenders?
Will they rub if lowered on sport springs?

I have 12mm in the back. they rub a bit when there's five people in the car and you hit a corner, but that's no biggie because i rarely have a loaded car.

1. What springs do you have?
2. Do you get any vibrations from the spacers?
3. where to buy the spacers?
Thanks


1. bilstien pss9 coils
2. i only got vibrations once when i rushed not torquing the wheels down properly [star pattern]. was easily fixed by doing it right
3. got my spacers from parts4vws.com, but there are plenty in the classifieds usually. make sure you get the longer bolts, stock bolts with spacers are scary
