I have 124 style wheels and wanted to get spacers for a while now, and just recently I noticed that someone stole one of my wheel bolts, so instead of just replacing the bolt I decided to finally get the spacers. So now my question is what size spacers would make the wheels flush with the body?

Where and how much did you get the spacers and bolt for? Dumb question but when I buy 20mm spacers I have to buy 20mm bolts?

I got mine from tuner motorsports as well. They will walk you through the spacer and bolt size needed.
