    Wheel nuts - steelies vs alloys

    Can anyone tell me if I need different wheel nuts when swapping OEM steel wheels on my 2006 with some OEM alloys from a 2010 Polo?

    I’m assuming the stud pattern from the 2010 will match the 2006?

    These are the VW alloys I’m swapping for the steelies.

    No difference.

    That 6R Polo would have had a steel wheel as the spare.
