Here are the photos I promised...they aren't the uni-lugs that can fit different lug patterns, I just need lug nuts that can squeeze into the holes farther to catch the lug studs.

You will probably need longer studs too. Is a manufactuer name stamped or cast on the reverse of the wheels? Best bet would be to ask at a tire & wheel shop they deal with this all the time. If a wheel comes off it won't be pretty.

Those are American Racing "Gamblers". I have the same wheels. Got lug nuts from auto zone and I don't have any problems.

Yeah I actually figured out that they are "mag" wheels, not uni lug. Once figured that out I went down to napa and picked up these lug nuts. They fit perfectly. Thanks for the help guys! New lug nuts is way easier than knocking out and pressing in new lug studs.
