Default acorn style lugs with BS wheels???

ok so i have a set of CCWs for the street and those use acorn style lugs and then i have a pair of Billet Specialties street lites and they have straight cut mounting holes looks like a shank type is required? i currently have them mounted with the acorn buldge lug nuts and have had to retorque them down like 5 times or so. just wondering if these type of wheels are only to be used with shank type lugs? if so what lugs can i buy...part number?

yeah i would take those off asap the acorns will mess up the lugholes if you keep torqing them over and over, also your risking having a wheel fall off by not having the proper lugs
