When I got my green Stealth I was rotating the tires when I discovered there was no key for the lugnuts. Using a cheap socket, I beat it onto the nuts and was able to get three of the four off. One would not come off no matter what I did. I took the car to a garage and they used an air-chisel to loosen the lug. Bad thing about that was the messed up how the lug-stud was pressed in...so I've been driving on 4 lugnuts for about 6 years.

Try contacting the rim manufacturer. They may be able to get you a new lug nut key.
