Wear to the wheel holes is common after all these years but rarely gets checked until too late, as you have found. The first sign is that the hole gets sharp edges, be careful when you check. This will only get worse but a smear of grease will at least allow the nut to slide on the surface rather than wear it even more. I've made the comment before that many who check WILL find they have wear and damage. Don't take good wheels to the scrapyard!
