Wheels from a friend., noob question Options

[RallyeMonkey]

Here is my situation. My best friend gave me some gunmetal Arospeed RS-GT 17x7 5 with tires not positive on the tire size, as I am at work and can't walk out to the shed and look. He had them on a '02 Subaru Impreza WRX wagon. We put one on the front to see if it would fit and move ok and we managed to breakoff 2 studs ans strip the other 3. But I got my old wheel back on first. Then I went to Autozone and got some 12mm "tuner" lugs and I couldn't get them to thread right. I thought if they where the right size they would work. These are like the ones my friend had but they are 1.50 instead of 1.25. Is the different kind of threads, fine or coarse? Will these lugs work if I order them?



Sorry to waste anyone's time if this has been answered somewhere else, can never find what I am looking for when I search.

The little holes and the little studs all go together right, I screwed up putting the lugs on. Didn't thread them right. Is there different threads? Cause they didn't seem to want to thread right. The info on the JC Whitney page doesn't say anything about a certain thread type.

No, there is only one thread type. If they didn't want to thread it was most likely because you had them at a slight angle. Did you strip them out?
