Default Gorilla Wheel Lock Question

I recently got a 2019 3is with the 18” f sport wheels. I’m looking to put a gorilla lock nut on, but after reading a bit more, I realized that the washer not sitting on the face of the rim might be a problem. I keep reading about hub centered vs lug centered, bottoming out, hitting rotors on the backside etc and I’m a bit confused lol. The locks are probably another washer length longer than the stock lug nuts. One of the reviews says to just double up on the washers and that makes it sit against the rim. He said to just pry the washers off the lug you’re replacing (which isn’t that easy,I tried but couldn’t get it) Can I just buy some washers and add one to each lock nut? I’m linking the exact ones below. Thanks for your help and glad to be part of the community!
