OEM bolts are 27mm

I use 40mm bolts with my 15mm spacers (also good with 10mm and 12mm spacers)

For 20mm spacers, use 47mm bolts or 1-2mm more should be fine, depending on what's available to you

Im putting 7.5 mm spacer on my rears when I get my new wheels. Im getting vossen hf5 20x9 et+25 for the front and 20x10.5 et45 for the rear with 7.5 mm spacer. Im getting these really nice vossen branded bolts to go with them. My question is vossen only has 28mm length which I will get for the front. and for the rears since I’m adding 7.5 mm spacer, so I would need 34.5mm long bolt. they offer 35mm length. So the front bolts will be 1mm longer than stock, and the rear the bolt will be .5 mm longer then I need. Would the 1mm extra length bolt for the front and .5mm extra bolt length for the rear be ok you think? I’m a noob when it comes to wheels.

You'll be fine with those length bolts (28mm and 35mm) it's only really an issue if the bolts were shorter than what you required.
The HF5 is a really nice wheel design - be sure to upload some pics so we can see what they look like once all fitted up

For sure I will post some pics. I got a Remus exhaust arriving within the next week or two. gonna get that installed. Then trying to decide on which tune to do. Some carbon bits next then I will order some wheels. Most likely will go satin bronze but black hf5 would be cool too. I got an alpine white m550i
