The lugs are different.  Steel wheels use acorn lugs while the surface for alloys is straight cut.  Go to your FLAPS to pick up a set of aftermarket lugs made for alloys.

Hey Y'all,
I just jacked up the '87 Westy, pumped to mount my new (to me) factory alloy
wheels when I had a horrible thought-do the stock 14" steel & alloy wheels
use the same lug bolts?? I don't want to take a chance on screwing something
up if the head taper or something is different.
I'm waiting for a HALT or GO AHEAD! from the immense wisdom of the list.
Thanks,
Ron Komoroski
