Default cossie to escort wheels...what a headache!!

Hi, can anyone help me....I have a S2 RS Turbo with Cossie cross spoke wheels which has failed the MoT because the wheels bolts are too small and don't hold the wheels on properly.....
....I have tried everywhere to get some wheels bolts that will fit but no one has any (have even spent £30 on genuine Ford ones that don't fit )

Does anyone know where I can get some bolts/collars to fit or will I have to get new wheels

Jay

they should be a 19mm socket to fit the bolt head, are you using steel wheel bolts, ie, the ones without the spinning collars for alloy wheels?
