4 inches. 2 inch spacer adapters work perfect.

Thanks for the info, is it advisable to bolt steel wheels onto aluminium spacers??? I wanna stay away from cheap makes too, any suggestions of a good brand to go for???

You bolt aluminum wheels to steel so bolting steel wheels to aluminum would essentially be the same thing. I bought mine a few years ago, just buy from a reputable company.

Sorry to keep asking questions... But do you know the correct centre bore size for a K5????

Center bore of what? Do you mean te hole in the middle of the wheel spacer? You wouldn't want hub centric so I wouldn't worry about it.
