Have to be careful with reps as they may have a different bolt seat!  e.g. OEM is a 'radius'?? seat (IIRC) & my OZ's need a 'cone' seat bolt.

If your only after 2 its prob worth just taking one of your current bolts to the stealers instead of waiting for delivery etc - plus having to drive round with two missing = not good.
Think there a few quid each - not 100% sure though

Plus 2 bolts on a single wheel is an MOT failure  :sad:

1 is acceptable apparently
