lost my locking nut key ,,,
 

best advice to remove them with out damaging my alloys please anyone :brickwall

iirc Halfords sell a bit of kit to remove locking wheel nuts. Failing that German & Swedish certainly do. Draper i think.

cheers will pop down and have a nosey
 

thanks

Yes Halfords will do you a removal tool. I think they're made by Laser, so a lot of motor factors should do them. Or just go down your local wheel and tyre place and they'll do the job for a tenner.

I removed mine with a old 3/4 socket, extention bar and a hammer!!!!!! hammered the socket on and removed with a rachet, took less than a minute, but the socket and extention bar were fooked afterwards.

i did the same with the 3/4 socket, wack it on and off it came.

will try tomorrow
 

well il buy 4 of them tomorrow then and give a shot or a wack thanks

you only need one socket, just hammer out the old nut, just check the size of the locking nut and use a socket that will fit, not all locking wheel nuts are the same size, mine just happened to be 3/4"

So if Halfords make a removal tool doesnt that just make lockers a waist of time? :cuckoo: I would have thought all good car thieving scum would have one in there tool box :(.

If they really want your wheels they just take the 4 non-lockers off and bounce the car until it strips the stud the locker is on.
