I appreciate you linking the info for me. 
My only question is I have a 07 G35 Journey (if that matters) I had the stock 17" wheels and I bought the 19" M Sport wheels. I am currently using the lug nuts from my old rims on my M wheels. Which lug nuts should I go with option A Shank Style or option B Acorn style. Is Acorn and concial the same thing?
Thanks for the help guys.
^ you should definitely use the shank style for the coupe 19s

Sorry, I don't recall what seats the M45 wheels have.
You can give Wes_888 a PM, he ran M wheels on his sedan.
Also,
You can tell by looking at the lug nut seat of the wheel.
If shank style, the wheel seat has that same profile.

If I am not mistaken you want to buy the Acorn style (older) not the Shank style (newer which is already on your car).

Can I use OEM Infiniti wheel locks (one for each wheel) with the aftermarket wheels (OZ Ultraleggera), which use conical type lugnuts?

You have the 2nd Gen OEM lock nuts, don't you? The ones with the washer will not work properly with wheels that require cone type nuts.Originally Posted by harp00n

Get tuner lock nuts for your OZ's.

I'm glad I was pointed to this thread. I didn't realize there was a difference until I tried to mount aftermarket rims used on a 2006 g35 (with winter tires) on my 08 G35x and the lug nuts wouldn't physically pass through the opening since the washer section of the newer lug nut was wider than the hole on the 06 rim. I went to my local Nissan dealer and picked up the older Acorn conical style and will try them out this week.

So I'm still confused. Can I use these on an 07 G35 Sedan Journey with stock rims?
