Wheel Lug Nuts

Wheel Lug Nuts
I am looking for information on what lug nuts are appropriate to use on my wheels. I have a set of 6 lug 15x8 borbet wheels for my 99 taco. They do not have lug nuts and I need a new set. Can I use the lug nuts from my factory wheels? If not where can I pick up a decent set. I got a set at a local auto store and while they tighten down, they are no quite large enough to fill the entire lug hole in the wheel, which makes me nervous for high speed. Here is a link to the wheels, Thanks in advance.

Well... The main issue is what kind of seat format the wheels are designed for... Is the mating surface the nuts snug up to (a) flat, (b) concave (rounded, as if for a sphere or ball), or (c) concave (tapered)?...
If the seating format of your OEM lug nuts is different from what the wheels are designed for - NO, you shouldn't reuse your factory nuts.
