Where to get shorter Lug bolts for aftermarket wheels?

Hey guys,

I tried getting help over at benzworld but accidentally started a witch hunt b/c that R129 section over there is run by 5 year old children.

Where can I get the proper 12mm lug bolts for aftermarket wheels? I want to get the brabus monoblock 6s off ebay and want to know where I can get the proper bolts b/c I hear that the stock bolts will be way too long and cause problems. thanks

w210 E55. I absolutely fell in love with it, it was an amazing car and one of the most reliable cars i've ever owned. I have X-pipe, K&N, AMS crank pulley, and a few other little mods here and there. I HIGHLY recommend them and now their market has collapsed, you can get one for $15k, so much car for the money IMO.

I've been eyeballing some 2002's, but it seems like (go figure) the examples that I have liked have been in the mid 20's. Was working on one out of Chicago that looked great but they wouldn't come off the 25 they were looking for...
