Noob lug nuts question

I currently have stock steel impreza L wheels. If I put on subaru forester wheels do I need to buy new lug nuts or can I use my old ones?

I think you can use the current ones. The difference as I understand aftermarket lug nuts are that stock ones are acorn shaped while aftermarket ones are cone shaped.

where teh nut touches teh rim is angled for the rim slightly not as much as aftermarket

some lugs are completely flat so take a look at see what you have
