Aftermarker Lug Nut Question

I Have the 19" sport OEM wheels on my 2009 journey and I'm about to buy purple lug nuts. But all the lug nuts I'm seeing says that they are ACORN, I read that I need FLAT SEAT and not acorn. Somebody help me out please!

Help with telling the difference?? here's a few visuals for you...

its all where the lug meets the wheel and hub. Our stock lugs/wheels are made for Flat, which it fully surrounds the hub bolts all the way to the hub and keep the wheels from vibrating. Acorn lugs won't do this, they only touch wheel.
