Thanks, the pictures help, though i don't see any bolts, so I'm assuming they're out. Anyway, a couple of things come to mind.
My BN is up on similar rims until I can get into my neighbor's shop for a few days to get some painting done. I've got the original rims prepped for painting, and I need to shoot some red, too (two wheel weights and an assortment of square-head and carriage bolts for mounting the rims and weights)
It's been a while, but I recall with that style lug, neither a square-head nor a hex bolt had enough width across the head to keep it from wallowing down into the lug. What I've used for the meantime is a hex-head with a heavy washer. That goes through the lug and then through the wheel and is secured with a nut and lock washer on the back side of the wheel. The washer makes enough of a shoulder to hold the bolt head.
If you want to try that, bear in mind that the lugs you have require a longer bolt to pass through them. The originals were 9/16" NC x 2-1/2". Where it looks like you have stamped steel wheels, 3-1/2" should be plenty of length. Mine are the cast wheels, and I think I had to go to 4" on mine.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
