Hmm, wheels i ordered from Tire Rack came with the necessary lug nuts, centering rings, etc. I have not bought from other vendors to know if they throw in all of the little things or not, though.

But do I have to purchase different lug nuts though I currently have the premium wheels on if that makes a difference.

If you purchased from Tire Rack then you should have everything required. I am still on OEM lug nuts but the wheels came with another set.

And +2 on photos of new wheels.

+1 to this. On the lug nuts there is a beveled angle on the nut that mates to the wheel. The wheel has the same beveled angle on it so the nut seats properly to the wheel. If the nuts for the same wheel have the same angle, you should be able to reuse what you have. If it's different, you'll need new nuts.

If you want to use aftermarket ones, go with McGards. They are warrantied not to rust and chip.
