I use my OEM bolts on my aftermarket 19". So I guess you should be okay.

If you are not running any kind of spacers then longer bolts are not necessary. Double check if both wheels are the same seat type before mounting them.

the 17'' is for e92 335i original came with style 230, will it require new nuts and bolts if it lower size to 17'' wheels for winters?

Some aftermarket wheels are manufactured with different seat types. Your OE BMW wheels have a Cone Seat.
