I bought some spacers and the disc with ten holes in it and the extended bolts. I have no idea how to get these in. The extended bolts are not long enough to replace the bolts currently in my hub and still fit both spacer and rim. And if i stick the extended bolt into the spacer, there is no grip or anything to keep it from spinning. Not to mention it looks like i would need an extra set of lug nuts to get them in that way... anybody know what i should do?

Yes you have to replace your old studs. Remove your rims/brake calipers/rotors and then use a hammer to punch to old ones out. Then use a 20mm 1/2" socket reversed with a lug nut to pull the new/longer stud into the hub.
Just like done in the next picture. PS the breakerbar is there so you can apply force on a wrench when pulling the stud in, without turning the hub itself, requires a bit of strength. My arms hurt for 2 days when I did all 4 corners in about 30 minutes
