NOTE: LUG NUTS ARE MADE WITH TAPERED BOTTOMS SPECIFICALLY FOR AFTERMARKET WHEELS. DO NOT USE THESE TUNER LUGS FOR YOUR FACTORY WHEELS.

Your answer was right in front of you man. If it says not to use them with OEM wheels then don't use them with your OEM wheels.

When I first got my polished Si wheels I was looking into some aftermarket lug nuts, but I ran into the same problem as you so I stuck with OEM lugnuts.

If you use those you will ruin the lug seats on your OEM wheels.

OEM wheels use ball seats, and aftermarket use tapered.

All OEM honda wheels pre the stupid new odyssey are ball seat lugs and tsx and rl are using the toyota style mag lugs. If you use conical seat lugs there go your oem honda wheels.
