   usually yes alloys need flat bolts, you will need longer bolts if you run spacers any larger than 5mm and do you know the offset of the c2 alloys?

   just looked on ebay and all the c2 alloys seam to have an offset of 35-38 so yes you will need 20mm spacers and longer bolts you can get a cheap kit like this

   well its best to give them a call/email as that pic would just be a general pic they use for all their spacer kits, just say you need 4x20mm spacers with 16xlong flat type bolts im sure they will be able to sort you out
