Yeah, yeah, I know junk. But my question is with the flat area surrounding the lug holes what lug/washer/stud set do I need to buy from the vendors. Particularly the lugs. Some vendors mention shoulder type, another option is a tapered lug. Could somebody clarify this thanks.

From the looks of it you will need: the studs, shouldered lugs and washers like they sell for the American Eagle 5 spokes.

Its tough to see but the holes have no depression around them to seat a lug, its flat right up to the hole.

Maybe have a local machine shop put a small face on the lug pedestal and run the Eagle alloy hardware.
