Default Locking Lug Nut HELP!!!!

Hey guys! I broke the key for my locking lugs that came with the car when I bought it. Anyways I have know idea what brand the actual lugs are. Obviously you can see the ROTA's but I dont think they make a lug kit. They are seven sided, I have already ordered two different keys online. One with lugs and one without any luck!!!

I really need to get these off to repair a busted wheel bearing. If I dont find the right key soon I am going to JB Weld 4 sockets to the lugs.

Find the snap on truck driving around your town. They sell a socket that you beat on and when you loosen the lug nut it gets tighter on it

Thats what I've heard and also someone mentioned the Gator Grip but am not sure that is the ticket. Anyways I was hoping someone might know what lugs these actually were. Again they are seven sided, and similar in color to my rotas and that is about all I know about them.

Take your car to a tire shop they have tools to take off wheel locks. My friend went to one to get all of his taken off only cost him like 20 bucks.

thanks for the tips, what are turbo sockets. I will look into that brand you mentioned. The car cant go to a tire shop. Busted wheel bearing and separated from hub.

Craftsman Bolt-Out™ work wonder too and it only cost about $20-$30 for a whole set.

I had a similar problem a while ago when I lost my key with my tool box and I never figure out what brand was it. So I brought it one of my friend's shop and it only took him like 10mins to get all the key off. He just hit the bolt-out socket in and turn it.

BTW: before I went to my friend, I got an estimate from wheel work for $300+ to take out all four keys. They said they need to drill out the key and replace the stud. lol what a joke.

Ive decided that they are probably Kyokugen lugs. Based on the fact that there seven sided and others posting about stripped out Kyo keys.
