Lug nuts for aluminum wheels?

I recently was given a set of the Ford 10-hole aluminum wheels. They are in need of some serious cleanup, polishing, and powder coating - which I'll do. However, they didn't come with lug nuts and when I look at some catalogs I find one listing for wheels "excluding aluminum" and another listing for aluminum wheels. Does anyone know the difference and what I should be looking for?

And, fyi the wheels are marked Ford 15 x 7.5 and E41040.

I've been surfing and found this: Gorilla Automotive Products - Lug Nuts, Wheel Locks, Auto Security, Wheel Accessories Looks like I need "bulge acorn" nuts - right? I'm assuming I don't need extra length.
