i would measure the seat radius/angle of the lug and on the wheel. I would bet they don't match, and you are only making contact at a very minimal point with them, causing undue stress to them.

also, put your lugs on with a torque wrench, and i don't think it will happen again. broken studs (especially on newer vehicle) are often due to overtightening.
