Well, I bought bolts from the dealer, took my wheels off, took bolts out, and it turned out that threads are different (I have Tein bolts) Well, it's just a nut I thought, I'll get it in any autostore. Well, I went to few different places, including dealer, nobody had them! So I had to put everything back together, and now I have to wait 3 days for them to get here(ordered from Toyota). I am very dissapointed, I missed San Diego auto x! Damn...
So if you got Teins get bolts and nuts. Oh, I couldn't find my stock ones;(

Crash bolts are smaller diameter bolts for the joint between the wheel hubs and struts. They allow more range of adjustment for camber on the front suspension.

I didn't need (or get) any aftermarket bolts with my Tein kit. The stock bolts (and crash bolts, I use one 3-dot on each side) fit fine.
