I bought these wheel mate lugs awhile back and the wheel lock key for them has snapped. Tried to order a new set...there discontinued So im unable to get them off. Tried hammer a socket on and a couple other lug removers but no luck. Looking for anyone in area that may have in there posession a seven sided wheel lock. Just for clarity it looks like a regular six sided socket except it has seven sides. If you do just looking to use it, get them off and some new ones on. Any help would be awesome.

 

Would you risk breaking them off? Your wheels are going to get messed up in the process. You can try hammering on a socket as well. I think discount tire may be able to help.

 

go to the nearest discount tire and ask for a rotation. They should ask for the key say its in the glove box or the back or where ever. When the car comes into the bays they will look for it with no sucsess and ask you for it again. Go out and look for it, after searching just tell them to remove the locks and replace the lugs. They should do it for free if your lucky, max you'll is $15

 

they sell gorilla lugs too which run about 40 bucks for 20..

 

more than likely he'll need the skinny lugs

 

all i know, is when i lost the key to my wheel locks, i took my car to a little mexican tire shop right here by my house, and they broke off my locks for like $10.... but dude discount tire is not so discounted... they wanted $250 for one of my azenis... i got the same tire for $175 from a performance shop... wtf? lol

 

You can bring down the price on tires at discount. I got 20 off each wheel when i got mine.

 

Yes i have the thin wells which makes it really difficult. Im a mechanic so im about to try hammering the sockets on it and possible air chisel. This was my last try before attempting the risky stuff. Cant find anyone with those type of locks anywhere nearby . Anyways thanks guys
