Smile Wheel Stud Lengths?

I had a staggered set of C43 17" AMG Aero II Monoblocks on my '99 c230 and the studs were understandably longer than the stock 15" rim studs. Will I need to purchase the E55 wheel studs to run the E55 18" staggered AMG Aero II Monoblocks or will the set of studs that I have for the 17" work? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

If you are using stock bolts the 15" bolts should fit your AMG wheels.

Thank you for the reply! I would have used the the stock 15" bolts, but when I took off the 17" AMG bolts they were a little longer and I was wondering if the 18" AMG's required even longer bolts, yet again. Thanks again!

No, mercedes has somewhat standard sizes when it comes to bolts. I think there are 3 sizes. 25mm 28mm and 32mm

Thanks for all your help in clarifying this for me. I did not want to chance it and have any of the wheel bolts sheer off while driving. So, am I understanding you correctly that the c230 uses the same length bolts for any wheel size that you put on the car? Thanks again!
