steel modulars and alloys, bolts interchangeable? was created by biggaz

Hi all, first timer on here..

Right just getting a jimny tomorrow and i want some steel modular rims for it, will the bolts off the alloys work ok or do i need different ones, if so wheres best to get them? Its currently got the 3 spokes fitted (mode alloys)

Also, is i 2" lift noticable or just go for a 3"?

I fitted steel modular wheels in place of the 5 spoke alloys that came with my 2009 jimny the original wheel nuts were not long enough and I had to replace them I got them from 4x4tyres.com with the wheels, the locking nut and the Suzuki security bolt on the spare were ok.I have noticed there seems to be lots of them on ebay.
