I have always reused mine. The only time I have changed them was when i had rounded the heads off getting the bolts out. I had a hard time getting replacements since not even the dealer stocks them. I have always assumed that manuals like Bentley say to replace them to cover their legal ass if the bolts failed. But even if one bolt failed I doubt it would seriously affect the stopping ability of the car.
