It has been suggested (by a bloke in the pub) that the wheel nuts are
different for alloy and steel wheels.


This is I believe to be true ... and may well be why a steel rim with
alloy style nuts/studs is speed limited.

My Citigo has steel wheels and the spare is the same size. It has the sticker but as I said above, the garage explained that it would be fine as the same spare is provided for all models in the range.
