Got locking wheel nuts on my alloys but when I bought the car there was no key for them. Oh and the 2 locking nuts on the front wheels are different to the ones on the back. The tyre places I've been to haven't got anything to get them off. Does anyone have any ideas about how to get them off cause if I get a puncture i'll be stuffed!!

U may have to drill them out.

You can buy a range of special sockets that remove 90% of locking wheel nuts...if you are in the Hants area i might be able to help out.

Type R

alternatively, hammer a socket onto it.

Locking wheel nuts are a PITA

Bugger, thought that might be the case Ta for the offer Steve but i'm Nottingham way, so a little too far to travel!!

Like Matt says - hammer a socket on and use air tools to remove

Lise you're a tit

You could also try to do the other nuts up as tightly as possible.. Sometimes this is enough to release the pressure on the locking nut to make it unscrewable by hand
