Wheel Nuts & Key
Hi guys,
i decided it time to change my brake pads BUT ive got a problem. the mrs last year got the tyres changed and whoever done it used an air gun and has pretty much fooked the key. it does have some edged but not much and the nuts are so tight its twist the key slightly.
so before i either snap it or completly round the key i got some questions and some pics.
1. what is the "key" actually called?
2. Are these standard Subaru nuts & key?
3. What size are these nuts
3. Where do i buy a new key to undo these nuts?
4. What make etc and where do i buy a decent but not expensive set of new nuts.
thanks

Key is used to locking wheel nuts to avoid stolen it. You have to pay hundred of dollars for it. And after doing all this, you have to put it at a safe place to avoid such types of things. Good approach is to put it with the car..
