whats exactly are these "tuner lugs"? Are they basically the opened ended conical seated ones? Can you get them at ur generic auto parts store with locks? I want locks.
Is there a website that offeres real locks? Like a unique design for every lug they sell? Or at least MOST lug nuts. They rotate the key so it would be extra hard to know what key a person is using on their car?
I have gorilla lugs and lock but i lost the lock and two lug nuts came off my wheel. I need to get them replaced asap and find someone who can take off the existing lug nuts so i can replace them.

I got my "tuner" lugs from JCW Sport compact online:JCW Tuner lug nuts
I got the Gorilla set that came with a very narrow and long key so you don't mess up the rim finish with the lug tool. Also had dual head so I could use 19mm/21mm lug tool to get it off. Can't remember how much I paid for it but it works great.
I belive my 5g Accord uses the 1.5mm bolt so make sure you know what size fits your car.

looks to me that u just need standard tuner lugs. the stock wheels have a lot of clearance around the lug, while aftermarket ones usually need a thin-walled socket adapter to get the lug off. most aftermarket lugs have a 17mm head while stock uses 19mm. btw the lugs u need are 12mmx1.5 pitch
