I wouldn't use any OEM parts after 5mm spacers. Be safe and invest in aftermarket extended wheel locks. But it also depends on where you live, I dont have wheel locks on my car for that reason. Its honestly a pain when I have to take the wheels off for whatever reason to have to go get the stupid wheel lock key from the trunk and like guard it with my life. Now I just use the same socket for all 20 bolts.

There is a reason why there is 5 bolts and not 4 bolts. Factor mainly such as balance.
