Default Question from a soon to be new owner on wheel spacers...

Ordered a new A7 with the 20" sports package(Canadian) It's suppose to be here end of Jan. I also got the Hartmann B7 HRS4-252-GS 18" ET32 wheels for my winter setup.
I know a lot of you are running the H&R spacers, 12mm front, and 15mm rear.
The Questions
What size are lug bolts?
They all say to measure the OEM lug bolts and add the spacer size... I don't have them yet.
I'm thinking they will work with the Hartmann's too?
Where's the best place to get them?
H&R's? or some other brand? Any package deals out there(spacers lug bolts together)?
Thanks Garth

add 28 to the spacer size for the proper lug bolt length

you're probably going to be a bit more aggressive than me and the others who are running 12 and 15mm spacers. the stock wheels are a +37 offset and the wheels you ordered are a +32 so you'll be sticking out 5mm wider than the stock wheels, you SHOULD be ok, but it'll depend on tires and possibly camber, it'll be close
