Are they Rover Style Minilites as fitted to the Rover Mini Cooper from 1990 and many an LE Mini? If they are Rover jobs, then you'll need these: - www.minispares.com/Product.aspx?ty=pb&pid=34796&title=WHEEL%20NUT%20ROVER%20COOPER%208%20... Follow the usage information, as the covers are easily damaged if the wrong tyre brace is used. Plus their pretty much scrap should the covers came away. Also don't let the tyre monkeys go anywhere near it with their state of the art wheel nut removing drill, if they insist make them be careful as to where they should jack.

Sorry that my reply above doesn't make any sense, but I was passing out with sleep whilst I was typing it out and so I then shut my computer down and went to bed. Anyway, don't let the tyre monkeys use their air-drill (or whatever their called?) on those type of wheel nuts, insist they use a wheel brace instead. Even your own wheel brace if you have to.
