As DEpointfive0 said, its not locking the wheel in correctly.
(Our wheels are hubcentric)


To the OP, I haven't run into a set that ACTUALLY work, I had a set that had washers, but the washer diameter wasnt the correct size

While yeah you can buy another washer, like I did, it didn't work, I kept torquing it and it would KEEP going in... Bending the washer
Since our lug nuts are acorn shaped, those edges that protrude out from the hat are the things giving added pressure to the wheels


As for the locks Chris recommended, all I can say is make sure the "hat" is the same diameter on both
