I decided to replace the security locking bolts with standard ones.
However, when I replaced them, I felt a vibration/slight grinding through the steering wheel and accelerator pedal, when turning left or right.
So I removed the replacement 'standard' bolt to realise a slight difference. The RCZ wheel bolts have a secondary thread at the end of the bolt near the bolt washer. So I put back the security locking bolt (which also has this secondary thread), and now all is well.
Could it be that the 19" wheels have a thread in the wheel bolt holes? Which the secondary thread screws into.
Interesting.
