Why do you want to fit spacers, are you fitting bigger brakes?

You need hub centric ones, and a new keyboard as yours seems to have a faulty caps lock

Where did you buy them from and did you have to use extended studs?

RA motorsport put spacers on when they fitted Brembo calipers.

Yes, needed longer studs.

You need the ones that are hub centric! So the wheel sits on the hub not just the studs

Yep. The h&r hubs are hub centric..dimensions- 5 x100, 56mm cb. They have the hub centric lip, so the wheel like you says sits on the hub and are only secured with the wheel nuts.
