The car didnt come with a socket when i bought it, maybe it did....but i mighta threw it away.....any thoughts, or where to buy one at...dk what brand lug?



Oh and this one, looks like just a 1/2" drive will fit it i think, but maybe not:

 

Try a universal socket.


If that doesn't work, take a 12 point socket of a size slightly too large to go over the nuts, and hit it with a hammer. Be sure to buy new lug nuts to replace them with, before you do this, so you don't get one wheel off and then think "Ok, how do I get to the store to buy replacements now?".

 

Try to take it to your local tire shop. My friend had the same problem, but they managed to find a lock. Might run you about $20 or so.

 

 

ha indeed...this isnt my daily so it can sit for a whileeee if need be.

Ill try that universal socket for now, as i dont really drive the car yet to go to a tire shop.

 

with that insert one, I've used a 3/8th to get it off.

With the regular locks, the tire shops just get a slightly larger 12 point socket and hammer it on.

Or you can buy another set of those lock nuts, those are really common and they sell those at schucks or autozone.

 

tape the wheel and spot weld a bolt to the end of the lug and use a wrench. i do it all the time.

 

Discount tire sold me one for $7. They had a bucket of different kinds.

Makes me feel so safe having wheel locks.

 

Yo, take it to me, I'll take those lugs off for you FREE!!!

 

we do this at work 12 point socket that fit snug hammer on impact off

 

Take it to the shop, it doesnt cost much. Last time it cost me 12 bucks
