Im surprised you know how to swap to 4x114 but you dont know about using the correct lugs.
You are supposed to use the ones on the left, hence the sitting point. Sure those Rays may look cute on your OEM wheels, but they are incorrect. Your lug nuts could come loose since they arent seated properly.

Aftermarket wheels use a tapered/conical/cone shaped seating area and need lug nuts (including most tuner lug nuts) which also have the same shaped seat. No, it is not safe to mix and match (stock wheel with tapered lugs or vice versa); the contact between the lugnut and the wheel will be insufficient, putting undue stress on them and potentially causing failure.

I guess you and I have different opinions because i'd rather be safe and not worry about my "cool" lug nuts damaging my wheel or them coming loose.

Painted ITR's look like Rota GT-3's
Maybe with the center caps it would look better
Regardless of what I think, if you like it rock it man
