S5 9x20 fitting advice

When fitting the OEM S5 9x20ET29 wheels on the B7 RS4 what size spacers are required?
Do you need longer wheel bolts, and if so, what size?
Thank you!

It’s around 4mm to clear the calipers but as hubcentric ones aren’t available that thin I used 8mm with no issues and bought 8mm longer bolts.
Spigots are req too

Thanks Daytona.
Did you use 255 or 265 tyres? Any rubbing issues?
Where did you get the spacers/bolts from?

I’m currently on 255’s but the 265’s I had on before were ok too, suppose it all depends how low the car is.
Pretty sure I got them on eBay, night have been an German seller. I’m thinking of selling the spacers and spigots, if you’re interested give me a pm

H&R make hub centric spacers with the correct hub size which allow for the hub size difference between the RS4 and S5. That remove the need for separate spigots!

You wont' get 4mm hub centric spacers.
