You might find you can run standard bolts?Dunno

Stick the wheel on with the spacer and have a look at rear of drive flange to see if the bolt is into the flange far enoughThumbs up

At a guess you will need 10mm longer bolts as your adding 10mm extra material!

Not if you've got 10mm sticking out of the rear of drive flange with standard bolts and no spacersThumbs up

Pretty sure standard bolts stick out of the rear of the drive flange,just depends on how far,so easiest thing to do is try themWink

Try Rally Design, they have a selection of short and long bolts with the M12 1.25 thread type.

You will definitely not be able to run the standard bolts with 10mm spacers. They might bite and tighten up, but you definitely won't be using all the thread available on the hub and at the very least you want to be using all of it, which is probably why standard bolts may stick out the back a little - deliberately! You want bolts that are 10mm longer than standard or if you're feeling plush go for a stud & nut setup.

Rule of thumb is 3 threads protruding! You might get away with using 407 flat faced bolts but iirc they are only 5mm longer!

Have you tried ur cyclones over the brakes with out spacers as I believe another forum member said they fitted?
