I believe they are the ones you need, having seen the Sports pack wheels I believe the nut pitch is the same as the minilite wheels(which use the nut pictured)

These are far, far superior.

And cheap.

But does the chrome last more than 5 minutes? Every chrome lug nut I've ever owned has rusted within months. I went to stainless capped ones and they continue to look great years later.

Thanks guys, I’ll go with the Ebay ones, I’m only replacing because a few of the tapered bits on my old ones are a little out of shape, thanks again

That I don't know. But the nuts with the monkey metal caps are the work of the devil IMO.

I think there are various levels of quality available. The ones I bought (not for a Mini, and I'm not making this up) were "Gorilla Nuts".

Gorilla Nuts? Stands to reason that they'd be better than monkey metal then. ?
