My 1995 S14 zenki has wheel locks on every wheel, and the previous owner lost the key for it, and now I can't take them off. . . So here's my question, if I can figure out the brand of the locks on my wheels, can I possibly go to a store, and buy a pack of locks of that particular brand on my car (that comes with a key), and test out the key on my car's locks? Or I can only take them off by force?

Help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

what type pf wheel locks are they?

tuner style, basically just a 10mm or maybe 12mm allen wrench should take them off, inverted spline you should be able to beat on a tight fitting socket or an e-z-off =, anything else will be a PITA

I take wheel locks off at work all the time.

Its amazing how often people loose their lock keys.

An air chisel and a little ingenuity go a long way.
