The question I have...Are the lugs too big to go into the holes? If so, you need a spline or tuner style lugnut.

Also, you don't want to use your factory lug nuts on custom wheels because the OEM lugs are ball seat. Aftermarket wheels take a conical seat lug. You would have vibrations from the stock lugs anyway.
