I work at discount tire and we break wheel locks off of peoples cars who lose them just about every week. i think we charge 5 or 10 per lock though.

i lost my key about a month ago. i went to a local shop and they didnt have the right size so they just got a small socket and hammered it in there. it really didnt take very long. i was thankful. but the way they did it was very fast

try to find a socket that is just a little bit bigger than the wheel lock and find a t-shirt or something to put it over the lock nut. hammer it in and try to twist it out. at least this way doesnt mess up ur socket like using the smaller size

Weld a nut on top of the wheel nut and then use a wrench to remove it. Just fill the center of the nut with weld to attach it to the wheel nut.
