Wheel nut help
Boys and girls i need some help please, i got my car and i need to take the wheels off, problem is there not the usual, use a wheel brace, they need a bar that fits inside the nut to be able to turn the nut to remove them, and to add insult to injury i need to remove the locking bolts not to bothered about these though as i will just break them off, but any help would be good. If anyone knows what this part is called and where i can get one without having to buy a new set of wheel nuts.

What shape is the inside? some have a large hex, others are 8,10 or 12 sided.
Have a look on this web site, they allows you to buy the keys on it's own,

Have you tried hammering something in or on. I had a problem on my old blue one and used an old socket and hammered it over them, worked a treat on the locking nuts
when replacing, make sure you use Steal ones, You'll regret using Alloy ones
