my nuts are too big!

trying to mount some aftermarket rims but I found that I can't tighten the oem nuts because they don't give my thick oem nut wrench any room to insert itself into the nut well. What do I do What should i buy?

am I suppose to get thinner nuts or longer nuts or a thinner wrench or a combo of all that? or some kind of adapter?

please help, much appreciated!!

Hit up andy@performance or Jason@riverisde for some good lug nuts that will work with your aftermarket wheels..and most of them come with locks...
