I don't have Panasports, I have Nissan alloy wheels, so this may not 
apply to Panasports, but it does apply to many types of custom wheels.  
You cannot use tapered lugnuts because they won't seat.  The hole is 
cylindrical, not tapered, and requires a shouldered lugnut.  On top of 
that, it's not a standard mag wheel size; it's a custom Nissan size.  
That's one reason here are different lugnut shapes and sizes, besides 
the obvious wheel stud width and thread pitch.
