Our thread pattern for our cars is M12x1.5, so you should be able to use your stock lug nuts. The hub centric part is just to help align the wheel onto the center of the hub. To keep your wheels from flying off, I recommend fastening your lug nuts down to the proper torque spec. This does not mean to tighten them as tight as humanly possible, or by using an impact gun on full blast smile.gif . That can cause too much stress on the studs and end up snapping them off. You'll want to torque the wheels down to about 76-80ft lbs.
