Dont think they are an off the shelf item so would probably be best buying 15mm or 20mm from ebay and taking them to a machine shop to lathe them down

p.s when i had them wheel fitted i had a 10mm and a 3mm spacer (trial before buying a hubcentric) which was spot on so i lathe'd down a set of 20mm's to 13mm

They'll look in black and provided the car is lowered about 40mm. Smile
