Default Stock z33 lugs on rpf1?

Quick question. i bought a set of rpf1's for my 350z. the seat seams conical, but just want to clarify if i can run these lugs or i should buy tuner lugs such as moteki's. Thank you in advance.

Technically, the stock/OEM lugs will fit and secure the wheels just fine. HOWEVER, the 21mm socket/lug wrench required might scratch the wheel unless you are doing it all by hand (no impact) with as thin of a wall socket as possible.

I would, for the sake of your wheels, opt for tuner lugs with the 19mm heads/accompanying thin wall socket. Lots of choices out there.... standard head, allen head, long/extended, spline drive, etc. Pay for the brand names.... you'd be surprised how cheap(ly made) some of the budget stuff is. Muteki, Rays, Kics, etc...

Even a 19mm socket can easily hit the wheel.
