If i wanted to remove my rims is there a lug key for it? i know my moms murano has that, but i am not sure if the alti has it

and if it does, is it the same KEY for EVERY ALTIMA? if its the same wouldnt it be easy for people to steal other peoples rims?

if you have the hub capped steel wheels i seriously doubt nissan would include a locking lug.

why would you open another thread for another wheel related question? Just look at the lug nuts. If 1 of the 5 is a different shape, then 1 of them is a lock nut

no, but i am asking if the lug lock is universal for all the altima coupes

let say i wanted to take off a rim of my friends altima, would it work if i used my own set of lug tools?

lol sorry for this newb question but i wanted to know

Each locking set of lug nuts comes with its own key/pattern. You cannot use your key on his lock nut unless just by the stroke of luck you guys have the same key.
