get a 12point socket which has a slightly smaller ID than the OD of the lock, hammer that shit on. remove.

they sell kids that can cut into the lut. it will most likely be destroyed thats what I use on key locks when customers lose or break those rediculous lugs.

I had a stud strip out on me with the wheel still on. The lug stripped inside of the hub. The lugnut was still tight on the stud, but the stud just spun in the hub. Ended up taking a hacksaw blade and taping up both ends. Stuck it in between the wheel and hub, and cut the lug by hand. Three hours. Thank god for adderall, or Id still be out there.

dude has 1 post, no one can vouch for him, i see it wrong to be giving information pertaining to potential rim theft out just like that. With that being said, op, do yourself a favor and just order a new key from the company. Wait a few days or do over night, if you don't know the company, i am no longer of assistance.

you could either force a socket in there or weld a socket onto the lug.. if you're trying to do it without damaging the lug you're shit out of luck pal.

only one other person see's this as a good way for the OP to learn how to steal wheels? whether they have locks or not

i had trouble with this before and i asked for info. not one person suggested foul play. you got to trust ppl on zilvia(cant belive i just said that)
anyways getting a wheel off without having a key to remove the lugnut is never easy,short, or quiet. its a really stupid idea to hack away at a car if your trying to steal some wheels haha
op i took a power drill and drilled a hole through the wheel stud. it took like an hour but it collapses on itself and the wheel comes off with no damage.

^^^ I'd suggest the same as him or take it to a shop and most places can drill those out fairly easily for you.
Plus if you are a thief you won't listen to me.
