The postman just dropped off a set of Forge 3mm spacers to me this morning. Is it safe to use them with my standard bolts or will I have to get longer ones? Any advice will be much appreciated. :smiley:

You should be ok if they are Monza's in between the bolt and face. :wink: Take one of the wheels off the car and drop a bolt in holding the spacers on the back. You can see how much thread there will be holding in the hub. :happy2:

3mm is 3mm... what distance would be clased as safe?

The oem bolts will be safe. I used to have 8mm spacers on and needed longer bolts for them. I think you need longer bolts from 5mm on.
