You might need to get some straight shank lug nuts that are tapered and insert into the lug nut hole to grip the wheel lugs. I had to buy some after I bought a used set of 1994 Toyota 4Runner factory alloys.

You may need to get longer studs. You could try the lug nuts that Sea is talking about. They are called "ET" lug nuts. I guess "ET" stands for extra thread. They are conical seat lug nuts that have a shank so you get more threads on the stud. They also help to center your wheels. The only draw back is that they don't fit all wheels.
