go to nissan and have them order you the right locking lugs for free. i cant believe dealers are still installing the wrong lockers.

Did you see his wheel locks? Or are you making an assumption? I don't see any attached pictures here. You do make a good point though. OP, check your wheel locks. They must be shaped like the rest of your lug nuts...there should be a flat washer part and look like this:

If not, they are the wrong locks and are not designed to work with the 19" Rays sport wheel.
