Go to discount tire or somewhere and have them take it off.

Vise-grips...... then buy a new nut!

Well depends if there like regualr locks.I have some locks that have a ring around them so if someone tries to use vice grips the nut wont spin just the ring will.

When I had Enkei RS6s put on my Sebring (go easy on me, I was young, we all make mistakes :icesangel ) I received a special octagonal (or was it hexagonal?) tool to take off the nuts. They referred to it as a 'key'. If you lost the key, my guess is that you'll have to re-acquire it from somewhere the distirbutes Enkeis. Discount Tire is one such place. BTW . . . didn't we used to have someone on the old forums that was a racing specialist for Discount Tire for two years? What happened to him?

Oh ya . .. I found the key while rummaging through my garage for tools the other day . . . I have no further use for it, so if anyone needs it, I could mail it out to ya for free. Discount Tire hooked me up with a spare one free of charge when I thought I lost my original, though. I love those guys. : D

When I bought my car, the guy didnt give me the key for the wheel lock. Where can I get a key? The Nissan dealership? Are they gonna try and rip me off? It's gonna suck when I have to change a flat, cuz I wont be able to get the damn wheel off.
