will spare tire fit with aftermarket lug nuts?

leave 5 stock lug nuts in the car so when you do need to use the spare? You won't find out you're screwed.

yeah also make sure you have the right size socket/wrench to get the aftermarket lugs off as well. Carrying the extra lugs won't do you any good if you can't get the current ones off.

I don't know, thought all this seemed pretty obvious but then again what you and I consider common sense can be completely different.
