Replacing my Rusty Nuts...

Bought a set of 108s. Decided that it would be really good to:
a) Get some nice shiny Wheel Nuts - actually I think they are Bolts not nuts?
b) Invest in some Locking Wheel Nuts/Bolts

From a mega-search of the Forum it looks like McGards are the choice for the Locking Wheels. But what about the Bolts? I took a look at the ones on this website - http://www.performancealloys.com/wheel-nuts-wheel-bolts.aspx?

However there seem to be a zillion options. I thought these things came in 1 size. :?

If anyone has recommendations as to best source for these things I would be grateful.
 
At risk of replying to my own post :)
For genuine BMW Star Spoke Composite 108 wheels I have found out that they need the following Bolts:
Thread size = M12 * 1.5mm
Seat = 60° (taper)
Thread length = 26.4mm
Hex: 17mm
I did go for shiny zinc bolts and matching McGard locking wheel nuts.
