Thanks for all the help, the Kirkham lug nuts seem to be a qood option!

Of course I knew they're supposed to be 12mm, but the 12mm allen wrench is sitting so loose that the result will be what is shown in the picture. This is why I ground the 1/2" (=12.7mm) allen wrench smaller in size until it would just fit, this enabled me to torque the lugs without destroying them completely.
