Default suspension Bolt question, this will sound ghetto

So, I've finally finished removing/taking apart all the suspension stuff for my bushing install, probably 6-7 bolts needed to be cut out because the bolt and the bushing metal insert were welded together with rust.

now, i already bought 2 new bolts from honda for the front, and I need the 6 more for the rear, should I pay $10 (that's in CDN dollars) each at honda? or is getting something at the hardware store ok?

I would imagine these bolts are a stronger metal then the hardware store bolt, that and the suspension bolts all seem have a tapered end ad some grooves on the body of the bolt.

I just thought I would ask incase. Spending $60 on bolts is not exactly something I want to do unless I have to, then I will.

make sure you get grade 8 or 9. grade 5 ( i think thats the common hard ware one) will be alot weaker.
