Angry Where can I find some Longer wheel bolt for my P1 ?

HI guys , does anyone know where I can buy some longer wheel bolts for the P1 ( apart from Prodrive ...they want £500 for 20 ! ).......it is because I had the AP 355 6 pots fitted and the Oz will not clear the calipers, so had spacers fitted but now need longer wheel bolts .
wheels are 18" Oz superleggeras .

thanks

Good practice for this fine thread recommends at least 9 turns. I've bought some new longer studs from www.trackstore.co.uk (Part no.SS41:12mm x 1.25 Subaru/Nissan**. 63mm long stud). I cut 15mm off to prevent the dome nuts bottoming out before the wheel is fastened. I'm now getting at least 12 turns per nut. You can buy the deeper dome nuts from track store too.

Fitting is quite easy too.

Regards,

Ian
