Forged lug nut question

I managed to get a set of used 17" OZ Superleggeras (SP?) for my Forester XT. The person is nice enough to include some Forged Al lug nuts. (attached pic)

I'd like to get some sort of wheel lock though. Right now I have the OEM locks and lugs will those work on these wheels? I don't like the idea of the end being open and dirt getting in there. Is there something I can put on the end? Or am crazy to not use the Forged lug nuts?

If it is the original 19mm hex (i.e. it works with your stock lug wrench) then I have a black plastic lug cap for about $.50 each. I only have black in this size - it may look kind of weird but it will serve the function you're looking for.

Also have a McGard lock set for $27.95 but they're chrome.
