Lost special socket for lug nuts!!!

My Titan came from the factory with aftermarket 20's and lug nuts that require a special socket. They aren't locking, but have a unique pattern. This has been a pain in the butt since day one. Well, I have finally misplaced the socket for the lug nuts. I haven't searched the shop top to bottom yet, but it hasn't been any place I would expect it. And I'm due for tires in the next month or two.

So, would a big name tire shop have various special sockets on hand for an event such as this? Or am I SOL? If I can get them off one more time, I'm replacing them with factory lug nuts. Anyone know a part number or the dimensions of the ones I'll need?

If they are all a "spline" style lug, its likely going to be a gorilla socket and fairly common. Now if only one of your lug nuts (per wheel) it different.. then your probably going to have it broken off, unless its a nissan one... in which case a dealer should have a master set and would be able to remove it for you (at a charge im sure).

Take a picture and show us.
