Changing between stock JCW wheels and Motegi winter wheels

Hey all!

I've been a spectator on this site for quite sometime now. Had a 2008 MCS and just got. Rid of her and picked up a JCW.

I'm currently running stock R112 JCW wheels on my 2012 JCW coupe. Just picked up some Motegi SP10 17" rims for my winter tires, but didn't realize that I'd need to get tuner bolts for them.

I've never had to use tuner bolts so I'm thinking about a couple of options:

1) using the stock bolts and getting tuner bolts for the winter wheels
2) getting a stud conversion kit for the car so I can just throw the wheel on with the same bolts.

Only problem is that I'm considering getting the car lowered in the near future (whole other discussion) and putting 15mm spacers on all four corners. (Not really planning on putting the spacers on in the winter)

I'm leaning towards option 1 but wondering where I can order a decent set of tuner bolts? I'm in Canada so my local options a very limited.
