i had a flat this mornin when i woke up so i filled it and went to discount tire to get the nail removed and fixed. well, i forgot i have the special lugnut on each wheel that uses a special socket with a groove or whatever...anyways, i seem to have misplaced the damn thing. what do i do to get that bastard off there? anyone ever had this happen and what did you do to get it off?

 

The tire store should have a set of ripper sockets they can get it off with. That is how I got my Gorillia locks off after they broke.

 

hmmm, guess i'll have to buy a new locking one so i can lose it too....maybe i can find the extra regular style ones i have around here in the shop and use those. thanks KID

 

when i used to work at Big O and NTB, we would just hammer on a smaller socket on it and take it off like that..

 

This is what my dad had to do yesterday, when his is key broke.
