Raceware Rod Bolts. Do you need a special socket?

I am installing Raceware Rod bolts and it looks like the nuts are star shaped. Do I need a special socket? Can I get it at Sears or similar?

Thanks.

Jeff,

A 12 point socket works fine on these. Can't remember but I think they are 12mm. Take a nut with you to the store...It will save you from buying a few different sizes.

I think it takes something non-metric - like 9/16".
