Best ask your BMW Maintenance department, using the wrong nut and wrong torque can lead to a) destroying your studs and or b) loosing a wheel. Be very careful here.

I would only thrust the information from BMW here are some related posts my friend, shaking head.

Have a look

Remember your wheels turn 800 ++ times / mile and it's your life.
