Do I need different bolts on steel wheels?

Hellllooooo everyone!

I currently have a set of normal Mercedes alloy wheels on the car.

Just bought a set of winter steel wheels (and tyres ) and just wondered if I would need different wheel bolts?

Anyone know?

Thanks

You will need short bolts for the steels usually on the rear only although best to fit them all round. The reason for this is because too long a bolt fouls the handbrake mech inside the rear drum.

Short of going to the dealer these guys are the best source.
