Evo 8 stock lugnuts?

When I bought my '03 Evo 8 it had aftermarket 18" wheels with some conical seat Gorilla lugnuts. Now that it's getting colder and probably will snow soon I went to put my stock set of wheels and snow tires (that I bought afterwards) on the car, but I can't use the conical nuts from my aftermarket wheels. Where can I get a stock set of lugnuts that are a short shank factory type? I stopped at the local Mitsu dealership and they told me $95 and a 2 week wait!

If you don't mind open-ended lug nuts:

And a thread about them:

I used those Lexus lug nuts when I got extended wheel studs on the OEM wheels, and they worked just fine.

or you can use any older mitsu car lugnut. basically any 90s+ mitsu with aluminum wheels used those lugnuts. particularly dsms. you could snag a set from a junk yard for probably $10 or less
