As for bolt lengths, stock bolts are 27mm and if you are using stock rims, spacers just increase bolt length required by spacer thickness. Approximately. So 12mm spacer ideal bolt is 39mm and 15mm spacer ideal bolt is 42mm; both are sufficiently close enough to 40mm that it makes 40mm a good simple, consistent, and available choice.

Note that if rims are not stock, all bets are off as their bolt hole may well not be at all the same thickness as stock and may alter required bolt lengths — that was the case in my winter rims situation, for example.
Really appreciate your feedback LexxM3. I was concerned with the bolt length and what they recommended. They only offer them in 5mm increments. Given your comment, i'll order 2 sets of 40mm.

I think i'm gonna give them a shot and place an order. H&R spacers/lugs are back-ordered.
