With the female lugnuts the key has to be inserted into it.

Where as the male lugs have a key that goes around it. Like a regular lug just with a funky design.

Male:

Female:

They make a reverse socket for those, but they are hard to find. Good luck man.

i dont know what the rim looks like but you might be able to hammer on a socket thats a little smaller and carefully back the lugnut/socket off. i obviously might take more than one try.
