I need to remove the lug nuts but I dont have the key to remove them and since they are tuner lug nuts I can't just use any tool. Any ideas or ways to remove them Don't care if I can't use them anymore i can get another set.

 

i put a smaller socket around it and hammerd it on and then used teh socket to get it off

 

Find out the manufacturer, call their customer service number and have your VIN # ready. Maybe it's on file and they can send you the key. Worth a shot.

 

waqht kind of key do you need ? i have a few i let u use it if its hte right one. does the key go into the lug nut? take picture and send to me. u can go to sears and order it no more than 10-15$$$$. lots to choose from

 

that would be awsome dude, I honestly have no idea what kind of lug nuts they are i Can take pics??? I THINK they are 12mm by 1.5 and they look exactly like Spline Tuner Acorn lug nuts if that helps at all. oh crap just noticed your in Chesapeak, thats really really far. But I'll def. take a look at sears.

 

If you have access to a air chisel, then id use a wedge bit and cut a line down the middle of the key, then use the chisel to sort of spin it off...

 

Thats exactly what I have to do on the daily for the customers that don't know what a lock key is.... let alone find it in their car

 

send a pic i have a key for my tuner lugs

Okay didnt want to start a new thread but I was attempting to rotate my tires when I broke the lug and damaged the key to my lug lock. Now I have to call the manufacture and attempt to get a new key and buy a new set.

What I need to know is where (703) can I get the damaged lug removed from for fairley cheap or is this something I can do at home without damaging the stud?

 

Guys, you really don't have to put that much torque on these lug nuts. Put some grunt into it, but don't stand on it to get them tight! I am speaking from experience here.
