Hey guys

Got set of 17" genuine W211 wheels today.

At the moment I have 16x7.5J ET 42 wheels going to fit 17x8J ET38 wheels
Upgrade is genuine w211 wheels so I have no worry about arch and suspension clearance.

The question is, Do I need different bolts (longer ones?)

Many thanks
 
Thanks guys

Does anyone knows part number for locking wheels nuts? or dimensions?
 
I got a set of Mercedes rims off EBay, they were not for a W211 but fitted OK. When I came to fit them I found that I needed longer bolts, so to be on the safe side I would take a bolt from one of your wheels and see how far they protrude on the new wheels. On my car, the bolts where virtually flush, so nowhere long enough. From memory the original bolts were 28mm log and the new ones 45mm.
