You could use your old wheel bolts but when you are paying alot of money for some new wheels i expect new shiney bolts

If you wanted you could use your old wheel nuts like i said but i would buy some nice new ones you can buy chrome wheels nuts and bolts from any good wheel shop for about £1.50 a bolt well woth the money as for lock nuts they are £13 + vat at bmw just make sure you grease them and dont over tighten them. ;)
