Hey Michael. I need a set of 15mm spacers and 10 extended bolts. Can I just stop by? I live in lakeforest/irvine area.

there is a 5mm but i dont recommend running anything less than 10mm because of vibration issues. the lip on the hub is ~10mm, if you put a 5mm spacer on it, that means your rims are only sitting on 5mm worth of material.

i read on bimmerpost that people who live in a rain-crazy city like Vancouver shouldn't have spacers, as the rust will pretty much make it impossible for people to remove the spacers afterwards?

From the description on the 1st post:
1. Spacers need to be removed from time to time, and it's not uncommon for them to become stuck to the hub of the car. Nowhere is this more common than the four seasons of New England (where we are located), where rust makes removing anything a nightmare. Most companies tell you to use a hammer and chisel to beat the spacer off. All this does is distort the spacer which, in turn, may lead to a vibration. This latest spacer design incorporates pockets around the entire circumference of the spacer. These pockets allow you to easily pop the spacer off with a flat blade screwdriver without damaging it.

these are coated to prevent rust, but if they were to get stuck look at the following picture
see the notch? this is so you can insert a screw driver and pop them off.

Are the extended lugs black or silver/polish? Might consider them but want the extended lugs in polish or maybe silver finish.
