Here's what I did:
Bought a set of 30mm x M8 bolts in Inox steel, with an allen (hex) key and replaced all of the special ones. A bag of ten cost me 3 euros. Highly recommended. Never worry about losing the key. A set of M8 washers to keep it in place while detaching could be a good idea, but not compulsory.
Oh, and 25mm will do as well, at the hardware store thay had only 20 or 30mm to choose from.

Hi I be must be a right odd soul the locking key that was supplied fits all four wheels I have a spare locking nut so I do not realy need that but the centre cap and the plastic push in plugs would be handy I have refurbished all the alloys but one centre cap is a mess hence my request, (forget the locking nut).
Cheers Ken

misunderstanding going on i think 
the set on your car should all be the same, but different cars have different patterns, i have 5 different keys now with different patterns on them.
does your key fit your spare bolt?
