Any shop that sells wheels should be able to hook you up. I think you need what are commonly called "tuner" lug nuts. They are smaller in diameter and come with a socket to get you into the smaller holes. I have bought three sets of wheels and the stock lug nuts are too large to fit any of the holes. Hope that helps.
