Different lug nuts?

When I got the 20's put on, it was a PITA to get the lug nuts on cuz the holes were so deep. I'm using just some regular I guess 'acorn nuts' and I'm wanting something else so it'd be easier to get my wheels & tires off when ever I need to. Help?

you can also order spline kits. the lugs are about an inch and a half long. most of the wheels we do, we use them. they are groved all the ay around, and take a special socket to remove them kinda like full locks.

i agree with the spline lugs. they're the easiest to use in a small or deep lug holes.
