Default Kyukogen Lugnuts require a key?

Hello everyone, I had bought some used OZ rims a while back and got some Kyudogen lugnuts with them. Do these lugnuts require some kind of special key or socket to put them on? If so, do you know where I can get one? Thanks!

Yes, they require a key that will most likely strip them anyway. Get rid of them and get decent ones.

they dont strip but yes they do need a key to remove it or put it on.. ive have these type of lugnuts for the past 3 to 4 years already and never stripped.. the onyl cause of it stripping is peopel over torquing them down or using a air gun

I need the key as well, When I was putting my wheels on, I was tightening the VERY LAST ONE, and my key thing cracked and now its like impossible to take off my wheels.

yeah, funny how it seems 90% of people "overtorque" them and get them stuck too.
