They are conical, no washer. Did I F up? Will they not work? To be honest I was thinking about it when I i stalled them and couldn't find any info saying that it would fail or not work. Appreciate any thoughts.

After some more reading I decided to take off the lug nuts...I think I screwed up and I'd hate or my first mod to destroy the car I love or worse off hurt me or someone else..

Yup. OEM wheel use mag style lugs. Conical seat lugs are typically for aftermarket wheels, I don't think I've ever seen an aftermarket wheel with mag style lugs.

Good catch. That could have been disastrous.

Save them for your aftermarket wheels when you get them! They're pretty awesome looking with the calipers.

I have wished for a long time there was a wider selection of lugs in the OEM mag style. They're pretty hard to find relatively speaking.

I do have 20 inch bbs rs gt's sitting in my garage. Had them on my 5 series Bmer. Unfortunately the lug pattern is not a match. I would need some wheel spacers to convert the fit and I'm a bit concerned about that. I've read just about everything I could, simply haven't made up my mind yet. Decisions!
