Spare tire lug bolts
I recently acquired a 2006 R350 and noticed that the lug bolts for the collapsible spare tire are missing. Can anyone tell me what size these bolts are and where I can get them from other than the dealer?

When I changed wheels from 19 to 17 I had to scare up longer bolts.
I ended up buying on eBay, since list price from most vendors was something like $5 per bolt.
Seller was out of California.
I think I paid about $25 for a set of 20 bolts.
Sorry I don't have the sizing, but you can find on EPC.net or ilcats.ru, once you put your VIN or model in, and get through the navigation hierarchy.

The OEM rims take longer lug nuts. 14x1.5 at 70mm. The spares take shorter. 14x1.5 at 49mm. Here is a pic of both. The shorter one is for spare, the longer one is for OEM rim. I got them for free at pic-a-part. They are laying all over the floor in the Mercedes area. But I got nice ones off an R-Class with rims still on.
