Remove them. They serve no purpose, but to prevent the rear wheel (stock) from being put on the front in error. No harm will come if they are removed.

Try getting McGard tuner lugs or gorilla lug nuts...they should work perfectly with your wheels, the should be skinny enough to fit in the hole....and better yet they come with a lug key....McGard is prolly your best bet...cuz they have so many varibles for the key and they will only fit your lugs no one elses, as for gorilla they have one that fits so many. Any performance store should carry at least one of these...maybe even your local auto parts store might care them like Pep Boys or Autozone. Good luck.
