Default this is totally dependant on the individual wheel.

ball seats are used on the stock wheels but most aftermarket wheels will require a conical seat.

OEM wheels use ball seat lugbolts. Aftermarket wheels may require conical ones.

Default yea...its been a big mess, but a shop sent me the wrong lugs, and I needed the conical ones. I was

just going to use stock bolts..but now I got everything sorted out (hopefully).
