Xxr 521
One of you guys who said that I shouldn't have told the OP the truth - that what he was doing was laughable - will now step in and tell him - nicely - that drilling out the holes in his wheels just so he can run Ray's lug-nuts instead of any of the myriad spline-type tuner lug-nuts that he's supposed to run with his wheels is not only silly, but dangerous ... right?
I mean, we all agree that what he or she is trying to do is nuts (as it were), right? That the only question is how he or she should be told ... right?

the solution to your problem is simple, you have 2 choices:
get the wheels drilled out to fit the rays lugs cause they're a pretty color and greatly increase the chance of your one of your wheels breaking while you're driving
or
buy smaller diameter lugs that will fit your wheels without any drilling
so the choice is yours: chance of death with pretty colors or life with slightly different color lugs
as far as your hesitation to buy new lugs that might not fit, measure the lug hole diameter in your wheel and ask the vendor that you buy your lugs from to measure the new lugs you want to buy. or if you find a shop local to you that sells lugs you can take one of your wheels with you and make sure it fits

I got the same wheels. there are 2 size lugs and I forgot which ones I got. But they fit perfect. Paid like 50 bucks from the place I bought the wheels.
Actually I have the 527's so maybe they are different?

I ran into a similar problem with my 522's. I found that I needed lugs that took a 17mm socket to fit. A lot of the tuner lug nuts take a 19. Or if you buy a set with locks, one takes a 17 and the other takes a 19. I ended up buying the kind that take a torx wrench.
What brand did you get? I'm thinking about getting the PWJDM lugs (closed ended) and want to make sure they will fit.
