Question Help Needed!

So I bought some new wheels, Gear Alloy 713MB Double Pump. They are awesome looking, and the best part is I haven't seen any other F150 in the area with them (unlike rockstars & monsters). But they didn't come with lug nuts, and my stock lug nuts don't fit in the slots (have a lip that makes them too fat). Where can I get replacements, what do I need? (No luck with 2 AutoZones, 2 O'rileys, & 1 Advanced) Thanks for your help!
This is a link to the wheels: http://www.wheelfire.com/scontent/Wh...190&CheckFit=1

Would these be thin enough to fit in?

Thats weird... wheels coming without lugs? I would get in touch with them and ask....

On another note, glad to hear you got some more unique wheels for your area. I also got new wheels that I have never seen around here (brand new additions to a catalog).

Haha, well then... contact that company anyways and find out how much some lugs would cost you. Call a few tire places as well!

I found some ones on amazon (see link) I know what size they have to be, and after some research I found that I need "acorn" shaped ones. Check the link and let me know what you think. (the ones I found were recommended as the best for anti theft and durability).
