Do I need longer wheel bolts?

Picked up my new wheels from luckygti and I'm not sure if the stock bolts are long enough.
They are ball seat like the oem wheels so the bolts fit fine but I only have around 10mm of thread to go into the hub. Is this safe or should I get some longer bolts?

Longer defo! Put the standard bolt through the standard wheel then see how much you have sticking out. Then order new bolts to whatever length you need to have the same amount sticking out on the new wheels. You can't risk it not being long enough.
