Wheel locking nuts
Long story, car came with locking nuts, didn't come with keys. How to take off without going to a shop?

I'm sure you'll be able to get one locally . Measure head of lock nut first to ensure the ID fits .

Doh! My neighbor was welding up stuff last night, I should've asked him to help!Brucey wrote:if you know someone with a welding set, have them weld a nut (or something, anything) onto that....

I had just tried that, but unfortunately there is very little to no space between the nut and the wheel. I can barely fit a flathead in there.olympia57 wrote:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Laser-Locking ... 43cf8e5327

Thank you both; however I failed to mention an update. I found the key. It was in the glovebox.dm635 wrote:Don't know if you have the clearance. I've heard this but not tried it. If you have a socket that hammers on real tight you have a chance to remove it.
