Default Canyons on 99 XJ. Are lug bolts okay?

I put my restored canyon wheels on my 99 XJ finally but I am wondering if I will have a problem with the XJ lug nuts on the canyon wheels coming loose?

if so are the lug bolts available at the jeep dealer still?

Never had an issue with them as long as they were properly torqued.

Cool, thanks.
I went over them a few times with the torque wrench over the past week and they seemed to need snugged up a little because of the new paint but after a few days of that they remained properly torqued.

I run ZJ canyons on my renix xj, with the stock lug nuts, no issues.

Alloy wheels are known to loosen up a bit as they cycle through temps. Many dont recheck and end up losing a wheel at times.. ask me how i know..
