Volks come with chrome lug nuts when you buy them new. The stock lugs don't fit, they are a different shape. You need the conical lugs.

No, you shouldn't use stock lugnuts on Volk rims. They take a lugnut that has a different angle to the mating surface. The bevel is different. You'll end up damaging the rim holes and/or cracking the paint.

AND THERE'S NO REASON TO HAVE YOUR CAPS LOCK ON!
On the internet, that's SHOUTING and it's just rude.

If you bought OEM locking lugs, they won't work for Volks or some other aftermarket rims.
If OEM lugnuts won't work on Volks, why would you consider that OEM locking lugnuts would?
