Bob, if you go anywhere or call anyone, the term that you'll want to use is "open end" lugnuts. The closed ones are called "capped" lugnuts.

Make sure you get the right seat type for whatever wheels you are running. I'd hate to see anyone's wheels come off while running.

most of the "capped" lug nuts can become open lug nuts by running them on so that they push the cap off ....

Don't try this with Honda/Acura lugs because they don't separate like that. You can remove the cap with a band saw and file off the burrs the night before an event because all your open end acorn ball seat lugs have mysteriously gone missing. :wink:
