not a good idea if his are made for conical lugs. iirc, there are both variations out there.

you could peer into the lug hole and see if you can tell if it's rounded (ball lug) or flat
(conical).
or there was a recent post in the archives about this. they may have something on the casting indicating who made the wheel.
the more recent Mono 10's (if i'm remembering it right) are made by Volk, are somewhat lighter than the older ones, & use the ball lugs. the older ones use conical. this might be reversed. do a search to know for sure.
who did you buy them from. they probably know.

you're right
If they're authentic sportec they're conical, so need to buy new lugs. If they're volk-rays made, which you can see from inside the barrel, and they're labelled 'sportec design' instead of just 'sportec' on the centers, and they're a lot lighter, then you can reuse the stock lugs b/c its ball seat

They came with the wheels. Don't know the mm's... about 2.5", though. Conical. You DEFINITELY do not
want to use the stock lug nuts... they are different. And depending on where you live, get a locking lug nut, as well.

I believe mine are stock length (been a long time) ball seat. I vaguely recall...
that for my old sportecs I needed 2mm longer than stock, conical.
You should ring up Eric at SPP, he's in the know about this stuff
