If you have lost/don't have your locking wheel nut key, then you'll have to do one of two things....

1) Contact the company who makes the locks and get a spare sent out. Probably extremely unlikely since its JDM.

or

2) Have a garage remove them by whatever means necessary. There are several ways to remove them, which I won't post on here, just in case folks alloys start going missing! lol

I'd get them removed by a garage, and buy a new set of McGuards or similar.
