i have a 9-spline lug nut set and my key is stripped. some lug nuts are stripped also. i called called or visited sears,discount tire, courtney tire, ab & t tires, wheel depot, fox tools, knova tools, autozone, kragen, carquest, and a bunch of other wheel and tire shops around my city, but i coulnt find anyone who knew how to take off my 9-spline lug nuts. i also browsed forums and searched youtube, but to no luck.
i would be tremendously appreciative if someone could help me find the solution to my problem. so far i have tried hammering in a 3/8 drive, hammering in a chisel and attaching a socket at the end of the chisel, and i have tried hammering a socket on the lug nut(nothing fits around the lug nut).
i humbly ask my fellow honda enthusiasts for help...please

And if heat doesn't work, you could weld on a nut to the top of them, depending on how much they stick out of the rim, you can do this on alot of OEM wheels, not so much on aftermarket tho.
Well if ut gonna trash em. I hammer on a slightly smaller socket and that usually gets em off but then u gotta nother lil fight wit it bein stuck in the socket. Nuttin a vice and screwdriver wit a hammer cant fix haha.
