As long as you tighten the lugs at least 90% in the air, you will be fine. Studs/lugs carry the weight, not the center bore.

Let me rephrase that.

Get them fairly tight in the air and then lower the car just enough so the tire won't spin but is not really caring weight and torque to spec before putting full weight on it.
