Locking lug nuts?
I really should know my car better than this but have never had a reason to remove the wheels from my car until now.
What do I have here? Are these locking lug nuts with one missing (10 o' clock nut)? That is the only one that fits my lug wrench.
I assume I would need some kind of key to remove the locking nuts if that's what they are but I don't have one.
Thanks for your help.

Two choices - go to the dealer and see if they can get you a key or go to a tire shop and have them remove that lug nut.
I had the latter done on my old 944 years ago and it was pretty quick and inexpensive.

Looks to me like you have chrome lug bolt covers on 4 and are missing one cover. No locking lug bolt I can see from the pic. They just pull straight off and you use your lug wrench.

perryinva - That's what exactly what I think it is. My lug wrenches (one from the kit and another one) only fit on the one without the chrome cover. I even went and bought another lug wrench but no luck.
