Take off the OEM rim and measure the thread length of the OEM bolt pushed thru the OEM wheel and use a bolt that has a similar length when pushed thru the new wheels.

To determine if the new rims are cone or ball seat you will have to compare the OEM ball seat rim holes with the new rims.

To be safe you should measure the thread length when the bolt is pushed thru the rim and make sure the wheel seats are both round. Maybe you should go to a rim shop.
