Lug nut help

My wheels are similar to these where the lug nuts go in, how there is no room to fit the key to turn them.

How the hell am I supposed to tighten them?

Or "tuner" or "keyed" lug nuts, if that's the choice you'd like to go with.

But, in some cases, a thin-wall deep socket will fit in there.

Great help.
We had a similar problem with another make. Got lug bolts/keys from AIM in Toronto.

Re: Lug nut help

If you want locking lugs I recommend Gorilla small diameter locks:

They aren't as stylish as the tuners but they are somewhat safer. I use them on my Konig Feathers with no problem:
