Question 96 SL500 switching from stock 16" to AMG 18", do I need new lug bolts?

1996 SL500 I am taking off the stock 16" wheels and replacing them with 18" AMG wheels offset 25mm in the front and 23mm in the back. Will my old lug bolts fit on here, or do I need new ones?

Thanx much.

New ones. Carry five of your old bolts in case you have to mount your spare. The wheels will come with the bolts.

I dont think the bolts are coming with the wheels, they were purchased from Ebay. Will my old bolts just not fit? Where do I order the new ones, from the dealer? Are the AMG ones longer?

By the way, if it helps, the new wheels are the OEM 18" AMG's from a 2002 SL500, 5 spoke. Once again offset 25mm front and 23mm rear.

Luke if I can order these let me know, I also need one Michellin Pilot tire.

Thanx!!

Do you plan on selling your old wheels or keeping
