Broken wheel lock..
I broke my wheel lock and i was wondering if there is a kit i can buy to remove them.
My car is not drivable and i can't go to the dealership to get new one..
any advice??
if any guys in the nova area are willing to help out that would be awesome and i guess i can give you some money for your help...

find a 12pt. deep well socket that is one size bigger than your wheel lock..hammer it on till it sticks then take an impact or something of that nature and it should come off..just make sure you hammer that 12pt. socket on there really good.

They make several different types of lock removal tools. Mac, Snap-on, Matco etc. If you want to save some $ try hitting up LivinDreamsDC2, I think he had a Snap-on set.

depending on where you live, I could loan you mine, if not go to sears and buy it, it's like $40, six sizes. It will bite into your lock and pull them off. I was selling my old wheels, and my girl had accidently thrown away the rim key, and this saved my butt.

ok an f*ck up his wheels! If you do it wrong say bye to nice rims, and alot of the kits will not work with aftermarket rims like on imports! They work great on trucks and the 20's. I guess it is his call!

MAKE SURE IF YOUR GET THE KIT FROM SEARS GET THE ONE WITH THE THIN SIDEWALL THAT WAY YOU COULD USE IT ON AFTERMARKET WHEELS . I WORK FOR A TIRE SHOP AND THATS WHAT WE USE AND YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO BRAKE LOSE WITH A BREAKER BAR .
