Do I need to buy new lugnuts (winter wheels help)

[sky]

Hi guys, I need some help I purchased a set of winter steelies and tires during the discount tire discount. I have these...

Unique Aftermarket Steel
Finish: Black
Semi gloss black.
15X6 5-100/115 41B

My car is a Scion tC. I emailed direct tire and they said that the steelies use regular acorn lugnuts. Does this mean that I can use my stock lugs? Sorry for the noob questions, I've never had wheels other than stock before. Thanks.

It depends on what the original rims and lug nuts look like. I think all steelies use lug nuts with a taper seat. This may be what Direct Tire was telling you.

Take a peek at this web site. You may get some answers.

You are being smart about this situation. Getting the wrong type of nuts can lead to problems.
