   if you go above 10mm id recommend getting hubcentric spacers. Have a look at dannyhalls thread he uses 20mm spacers on his vts wheels and that brings them out lovely

   Spacers thicker than 5mm will also require extended bolts. You can normally get away with using your existing bolts for max. 5mm spacers.

   only buy spacers that bolt to the hub, the wheel to the spacer. dont use longer bolts cus they're unsafe imo.
   
   20mm spacers should do the trick nicely. i run 25's:
