You can buy a new car, and be left wondering too, when the car's left in a shop's custody - you never know what's taken place.
The wheel lug bolts do look somewhat cheezy IMHO too.  Are they unsafe being that short??

Definitely agree on the look of the lug bolts...the extended ones look a lot better, but after a lot of research and searching, plus having the same short lug bolts (purchased from the MB dealer parts dept) on my SD, I'm okay with them. But the shorter bolts are identical except that the head sits lower...again, a genuine MB part. You can't get the extended ones new anymore (at least not from MB) as they were discontinued due to breaking/shearing off.
