When I had my SA3r's I had a buncha problems with lugfitment at first. Those centercaps are a bitch, haha.
I made a bunch of trips to the store and got a few different kinds of small lugnuts. All open end, none that really look like lugs.
I had very small tuner lugs, they were about a half an inch long, and needed a key. Sorry I cant really specify, or find a picture here on campus.

If you need some more help, pm me, and ill get some pics and direct you toward the new owner of my sa3r's, joeham.

those look like the open ended muteki ones. you can also see if gorilla makes similar ones.. i doubt you can find "unique" lug nuts theives don't have to fit those center caps. i used those cause they were the easiest ones to find that fit..

Kyokugen makes some short open ended lugs that are 7 sided hexes, a little less common than spline drive, not sure if they're short enough tho.
