Default st170 alloys on series 2rs turbo

hi guys
got a set of st170 wheels for my escort recently but it seems the escort bolt heads maybe a tad small for the holes on the wheels. they sit right at the last bit on the bolt taper. has anyone else done this? what bolts should I use or maybe do a stud and nut conversion.
any help muchly appreciated

You will need spacers to bring them out a bit. Hubcentric ones will be best.
