Wheels nuts should be ok. As I said in the U2U, you might need some 3mm to get the centre caps on. If you use 3mm spacers then might be worth getting some slightly longer wheel bolts, just to be safe.

GMax is ok for the money. Think I'd prefer Apex which would be similar money.

I had to use 3mm spacers on my Corsa with Alesio 2's so I could fit the centre caps. I had to take the wheel bearing covers off too! But it didn't cause any problems.
I also had the Gmax 60mm suspension kit. It was a good low budget kit in my opinion.

Pics are in my garage if you want to see how the wheels/suspension looked together.

Batter the dust caps with a hammer

Thats what i did on my Nova.

As for wheel bolts, standards will be fine, but if your after lockers, get to halfords or any motor factor place.
