Not a BMW, but a wheel question nonetheless

OK, picked up a set of random wheels for my DD/autox car ('94 Ford Escort). they have fairly worn hoosiers on them. The wheels fit the car, but apparently I need lugnuts. Stock sized lugnuts take a 21mm socket, and there's not a chance in hell of even a 17mm lugnut fitting inside that hole. What do I do?????

Oh, and stock thread size is 12x1.5.

You Need a tuner style lug nut. That uses a hex head ( like a giant allen wrench) or a splined lug nut. try http://gearworksmfg.com/accessories/lugnuts.html


Spline lug:
