Exclamation Question about LR3 lug nuts

I'm ordering more lug nuts to replace my damaged lugs. Going with the aftermarket solid lugs. No more caps. Wanted to buy these 14x1.5 27mm hex lugs but they are sold out. The seller informed me that he has a set of 14x1.5 LR3 lug nuts. He said the bolt diameter is identical and that they should bolt right onto the hubs, however the lug heads are smaller. Will these be alright on my truck or should I cancel my order?

Strange that the larger LR3 with larger wheels would use smaller lugs.

Here are the lugs I wanted to buy, currently out of stock:

and here are the lugs the seller suggested:

Nevermind. Looking at the diameter of the base I realized it wont really work even if the bolt diameter is the same. The seller is issuing me a refund. He said the other ones I wanted to buy sell like crazy and it will be a month before his supplier send him more.

Yep LR3 rims have a much smaller rim hole vs a D2/P38. I love the truck nut sized lug nuts off a RRC/D90/110/D1/D2/P38.

Yeah I ordered a set of the solid D2/P38 and they were awesome. Went to order another set and the seller was sold out with no ETA of restocking em.
