Default Wing Hold Down Bolts Question

I recently finished a Yellow Aircraft Zero and I have a question about the wing hold down bolts. Yellow uses Nylon 5/16-18 wing hold down bolts. For some stupid reason I installed metal 1/4-20 blind nuts in the wing saddle. Are the 1/4-20 wing bolts good enough or should I knock them out, install dowels in the holes, then drill and tap the wood for the 5/16-18 wing bolts?

Thank you,
