Default Stock Hubcap Replacement?

I have a 97 Civic EX Sedan. It has the stock steel wheels & hubcaps. The hubcaps are held on by the lugnuts. I would like to replace these with some aftermarket hubcaps (cheapies from K-Mart) that aren't held on by the lugnuts.
Does anybody know if the aftermarket hubcaps will mount on the stock steel wheels?

Yeah as long as its 14". Why would you wanna do such a thing anyways? Aftermarket hubcaps will fall off easier and looks uglier.
