this has turned into a hilarious job now,

none... not one ( and i have 3) of the wheel braces fit,.

 

theres not enough space between the edge of each nut to get anything i have in,. and the only only one that will go in is too big so will round the nuts.

 

you'll have aftermarket wheels (and thus aftermarket nuts) then matey. i had a similar problem and ended up buying a socket and breaker bar to keep in the boot.

 

you within walking distance to Halfords or somewhere similar? you'd need to know the size of the wheel nuts first mind.
