Will W202 steel wheel lugs work on w203 steel wheel? help

Hey guys, I need some help. I bought 4 steel wheels for my c240(w203) just like the spare tire. They are 205/55 r16. I took the alloys off my car and put the steel rims on yesterday using the same lug bolts. My car could not even move, it started shaking and feeling like the wheels were gonna fall off. I looked in the book and apparently with the steel wheels there are a special set of small lug bolts??

So i did some research online and came up empty handed. I was wondering are the lug nuts on mercedes somewhat universal?

Will W202 steel wheel lugs work on a w203 steel wheel? help me please.

Take Care,

each series of rim has its own flange depth. There are multiple combos of bolts. You gonna have to do some math between your own hub bolt depth and the rim flange thickness to get the correct bolts. You might have damaged your parking brake and bearings if you drove with the wrong bolts.
