	Forgot to check Halfords! You've saved me a tenner cheers :thumbs:

	They will do the job, Halfords sell them for about a tenner

	http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=191233856789 I'm guessing these are the ones? Just wanted to double check

	Standard bolts should be fine on 5mm

I got 5mm ones and have no issue now. I did actually look through your thread first for info on the coilies haha, wasn't it just 5mm spacers and extended nuts?

	Had a fair search through the site but haven't found anything that answers my question. I plan to fit FK Coilovers that have been fully wound down and wondered if I needed spacers to stop rubbing as I have alloys with 195/45r15 tyres on at the moment? Related question - Would I be able to use Halfords brake caliper paint to re-paint the rear springs?
