Default rays lugnuts on an OEM wheel, is it posiable? pics please

I'm sorry, noob question....... I can not recal if I have ever seen an aftermarket lugnut on an OEM Honda wheel. Is that because you can't do it or because it's not a trend? I'm looking to put some Rays on my 02 Accord SE wheels

thanks

You aren't supposed to as the Ray's and other aftermarket lugs use a tapered seat... and an aftermarket wheel also has a tapered bore to accept this. The oem style are called acorn seat and are rounded... matching the oem wheels bore. It will not seat correctly and could potentially cause damage to the wheels/lugs.

I was thinking along those lines, just didn't know how to put it into words.
thanks
