Lug nut question

I about to mount some 2010 Rays OEM GT-R wheels on a G37. I think I understand that you're not supposed to mount regular OEM Infinity wheels using other than OEM lugs. Can I use these to mount the Rays?

Those are tapered seat lug nuts. Are the holes in your rays tapered or flat?

OEM lugnuts have a flat washer design.

Post a pic that _clearly_ shows the profile of the lug hole. Using the wrong lug nuts will damage the wheel, not to mention not hold the wheel securely to the hub.
