Bad lug nuts??

So I try to replace my lug nuts and replace them with aftermarket one, i think my tire shop over tightened one of my lug nuts is bad, any body had any experience like this? what should I do? Im afraid that if I take it to tire shop they are gonna damage my Vossen CV7

You were using stock lug nuts on your Vossens? I don't think they're supposed to fit because there are a few different types of lug nuts and aftermarket wheels have a different lug seat design than stock wheels.

The ones on the left are the ones that will work w/ Vossens & most aftermarket wheels, the ones in the middle w/ the washer are for the OEM Infiniti wheels.

no,, CV7s are already on the car with proper nuts that comes with the wheels, I just want to replace them with D1 design lug nuts.

Do you mean it's bad in the sense that you can't get it off? It could be over tightened if they impacted it on. Or is there some other issue?
