Wheel spacers?
Is there anywhere I can get a set of 4: 4 stud wheel spacers that will give me a considerable amount of wideness, like 10-20cm

Can't imagine it doing the wheel bearings any good though.

10 quid for each extra 10mm you want to go.
+ postage 5 quid

and a lot better than long studs and a wheel spacer.
