The nuts have a 60 deg cut on the end, but Motegi specs doesn't say anywhere what it needs.
And yes I'm getting centering rings - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AAOEVD8/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_1?smid=A23ID4AZTDBV78&psc=1

Thanks for checking - these are my first aftermarket rims so just want to make sure it all matches up...

So long as you are using "conical" lug nuts on the after market (Enkei, Motegi, Konig, BBS, etc.) wheels, you should be fine, so long as you use those hub centric rings.

Stock Honda wheels use a "ball" shaped lug nut that won't work correctly with after market wheels ... unless those wheels SPECIFICALLY say they use "ball" shaped lug nuts.

I hope this helps.

There are only 3 types of lug nuts
you can see them on this image, the 1st one is basically every after market wheels ever, the second is most oem wheels usually, and the 3rd one was used on old cars

I'd forgotten about "flat" lug nuts, because I haven't seen them in a few decades.

Dumb question probably. But can someone explain why all oem uses ball and all aftermarket uses cone? I even tried google and couldn't find an answer.
