Lug nuts for Volk wheels

I am trying to find out the seat type on the Volk wheels.
I assume it's a 20 degree seat but Have no proof of this.
I already purchased the lug nuts (McGard) and then realized they may not be the right ones. As far as I can tell though, 20 degree seat is very common on aftermarket wheels.

For the heck of it, here is a picture of my nuts.

One thing I love about them is the seat area is free to spin on the nut so it doesn't bind against the wheel.

My Volks came with nuts, so I didn't have to worry about this. If I remember I will check them when I get home. In the mean time, yours look about right...

I checked mine and while they are not marked, they appear to have a 30 deg angle relative to the axis of the stud. I determined this by holding a 30-60-90 drafting triangle next to the face...

Rays racing nuts are super light weight.
