I don't think those are the right ones, I believe the ones for the Z are flanged.

just get your money back and keep in mind that the dealer you got those from knows nothing about your car

i was unable to find the correct part in stock at a local Nissan dealer. every single one of them tried to push the older style wheel locks (the ones you got) on me as though they were the right part. i went to an Infiniti dealer and told him what kind of car I had and when I tried to explain the part i was looking for he said "i know which ones you need" and he was right. thankfully the dealership where i bought my car wasn't one of the ones that attempted to steer me wrong.
