Question Hubcap Advice

hey members, i'm thinking about buying hubcaps to replace my stock ones. The factory rims under the stock hubcaps use 4 lugnuts. The aftermarket hubcaps show a 5 lugnut configuration. The lugnuts on the aftermarket hubcaps are plastic. I'm wondering if the plastic lugnuts shown on the aftermarket hubcaps are real or if they are just for show. If anyone knows if these hubcaps would fit my car please let me know, any info is appreciated.

ok not a massive amount of help as it will depend on as you say if they are real or fake nuts.

most will be fake but you do get some that are held in place by the nuts to stop them coming off so they wont be any good
