Dont ask MB. I misplaced my stock bolts. Went to put the wheels on for winter and had to but aftermarket bolts by trial and error. The dealersip couldn't figure it out (true story). It seems that the wheels all vary in thickness and the bolt length is critical due to ABS or some such. A set of calipers can be used to get the thickness of your rims from bolt contact point to back of wheel. They can also give you the depth of the threads in your hub. Add them up for bolt length. This is a safe and easy method.
