Default Need help finding extended lug bolts for 20mm spacers.

Hey all, I want to put 20mm spacers on the rear of my coupe but I know that you need longer bolts, maybe an inch longer than the stock 1.5’s it comes with. I research everywhere and can’t find anyone who even makes a 12x2.5 lug bolt. Does anyone know where I can find some? Thank you. (Btw my spacers I bought didn’t come with bolts)

You might get more attention under "Wheels and Brakes"?

To be more specific the OEM studs are 40mm, so you need 60mm studs. Working in inches just confuses the issue at times, so your 1" is actually 25.4 inches which is 5.4 mm too long.
The proper length of the studs is critical, too long and they hit the emergency brake mechanism.

also need to account for if they are aftermarket rims which prompted the spacers in the first place

For those who have to work in the inch system use the following simple metric length conversion operation:
1mm = .040" (.03937"), example - 60mm = .040" x 60mm = 2.4"
