Locking lug nuts on my volks.. Help!
Hey guys my car came with volk gtn's on it. I never really thought it would be so impossible to find a key for these nuts but the car never came with one and all the tire shops have never seen them before. It looks very similar to these locking nuts in this link

However they are a little different. If you are looking at the nut, at 12 there are 2 small holes spaced about 1mm apart and at 6 o'clock there are 2 more holes spaced maybe 3mm apart . Anyone have any idea about the best way of getting them off or leading me in a direction for another key? Best idea I've heard so far is to drill the wheel stud out. The locking nut is also pretty much flush against the stud hole in , there is no way to hammer a socket or anything like that on.
Thanks!

Not sure how much room you have, but I have cut a slot in them before with a die grinder, then used a large chisel (not round shaft) with a wrench / vise grips to loosen.
