Default Strange looking wheel nuts

Hi all,
had to change my rear pads for Mot but when I came to do it I struggled getting the wheel nuts off

they look like they are splined,a 17mm socket got them off but it wasn't a good fit and the nuts jammed inside the socket.now they are not done up as tight as I would like.anyone know what these nuts are and where I can buy the right socket?
They are not like typical locking wheel nuts.all 20 nuts are identical but as I said they look splined.

Hi

There are a few different types of 'Tuner' style nuts about. We carry most types in stock. If you post an image of the head of the nut up and I will see if it is one of the types we have here.

Thanks

Hi

Sorry, I missed your reply until today. I can't remember what wheel nuts Steve had on his Bugeye. I would guess at the black Kei Racing splined nuts. Put some pics on here or email me the pics and I will have a look for you.

Thanks
