Default Volk extended lugs

Ok, here's what's going on....I recently purchased a set of volk gtc's from a fellow s2kier and through shipping I was missing one lug, so I decided to go with the volk duranuts the extended version. I get them and go figure they're too big....Can anyone tell me which lugs I should go with and why volk would make lugs that don't fit their wheels or are the Gtc's an exception?

GT Series wheels are not compatible with VOLKS duralumin Lugs. You need the smaller tuner style lugs. The Duralumin Lugs only work on the CE/TE/LE series wheels or their wheels which are compatible with OEM Lugs. Sucks, I've been there.

Well, kinda. You can get away with it, they "fit." i think the issue with OEM is the way they seat.

no, you can't get away with it. aftermarket wheels require tuner lugs. oem lugs will not work on volk/work/ssr/etc...it's very unsafe!
