Default Help on lug nuts

Hello all,

I am putting on 18x10's and 18x8.5's Shelby American Torque Thrust wheels in the next couple of weeks. I was told to get the Gorilla lugs and have been looking at them. My question is, do these new wheels use a standard acorn or is there something special I need? I have looked at several wheel websites and can't seem to find anything on it.
Thanks for the help.
