Can u tell what kind of lug nuts they are? Mine came with some without a key looked at it real good and figured out it was a 6 spline ordered one off eBay for 6 bucks and off they came

Take a socket you don't care about that almost fits over the nut and hammer it on. Then use a wrench to turn it off. If that doesn't work you can always weld the socket to the lug and proceed from there. Always works.

+1 Same thing I do. Bang a socket on and use an impact, worked for me on numerous occasions.

You know that most shops have wheel lock removal kits? Its just a tapered round socket they hammer on/ impact off.
