dont get angry, either post in another forum, try your car's forum or sponsor marketplace, or goto a local wheel shop and ask.

i used to work at a wheel/performance shop, and if i remember correctly, the stocks are acorn style, and there arent many open ends that work with that. i think skunk2 might be though

if you have long studs and need an open lug for your stocks just cut off the cap on the stock lug's and there you have it no wasting money, they will work fine.

You can probably use the lug nuts from any Honda with a closed lug hub cap design, like a '96 GS-R.

Autozone probably has some too. They were $1 a piece when my friend did his 5-lug swap and used 300ZX rims.

There are OEM wheel nuts that are open ended. Typically, any Honda alloy that has a center cap that covers the nuts. Any decent Honda parts person should be able to find a part # no problem.

the correct lug nut for stock wheels for hondas are the ball-type lugnuts(that's the name they call it). just look at any close end oem honda lugnut and compare it to the acorn style type.
