no key for locking lug nuts, what now?

[FallenAngelHIM]

basically my skittle came with locking lug nuts and the previous owner decided not to keep the key in the car. dealer doesn't have one either. what can i do? pretty sure they aren't mcgards, but even if they were, i have no way of identifying it.

get a bottle of nitrous, and a hammer

dealerships should have a universal one

its not a OEM lock, it's aftermarket locks on the enkei wheels.

then you should contact with Enkei to see they have it other than that you need to research on the internet to see what company manafacture that key. Google is your best friend.

that's kind of scary... like home depot selling a universal house key...

one of those rinky dinky catalogs that sells random **** used to sell "professional lock picks"

a few ways I have seen this handled -

buy a cheap socket at local autoparts place that is barely smaller than the key lug, hammer it onto the lug and unscrew

weld something onto the lug to unscrew it

use vise grips or something similar

grind the lug nut down until you can get a better tool on it


not the best ideas but its something
