Different bolt size for different wheel size

Hey guys,
Im currently on style 158 225/45/17 all around for my 330XI. I was wondering if i need different bolt size for style 162 225/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear? Also i'll be putting on 15mm spacers for the rear only

All the various E90 wheels can use the same bolts. Even with aftermarket wheels its normal to keep the original bolts in almost all cases.

If you intend to use spacers, then you need to get bolts of the correct length to suit the spacer.

If you're running spacers just be sure to get extended bolts.
