Replaced my clk w209 rims with some 19s and mechanic told me he cant put original locking bolts back in because there too short or something.

Which ones do i need?

With wheel bolts to check for the length, place the bolt in the hole in the wheel, and there needs to be at least ½" sticking out of the rear of the wheel
