Wheel Lock Key stripped
 

I was trying to change over to my winters. When I placed the lock key on the lock nut the little groves of the key broke off. Is there a place that sells a socket removal kit? The nuts are fine the key is hooped. I dont see a number on the key and can not remember the brand. Any help would be appreciated.

Take off one of the locks, take it to princess auto, find a socket which just slightly smaller / ~ the same size as your lock nut.. hammer the socket into your seized lock.. apply torque.

Thanks
BUT that is the issue I cant get any locks off as the inside key groove broke and I have no lock key.

Just phoned Princess Auto, they sell a set but none of the sockets they have fit. :(

is it an actual lock or is it a tuner key socket?

get a wheel lug nut remover set?
the head bites into the lug nut and destroys it in the process of removing it though

Snap on makes a lock nut removal kit it is like an easy out but on the inside. I'm sure princess auto has a knockoff of this.

The one at Princess Auto does not have 22mm which is the head size of the wheel lock. The thing was that all the 22mm sockets were sold.

Try looking for a 7/8's then.

what brand are the wheel locks?

some brands will sell you just the key if it's only the key that is broken

go to costco, have your girlfriend sweet talk the guy and you could probably get them off for free

any good wheel shop can remove them

Had the same problem but i lost the key it self, then came across OKTIRE on kingsway.. got em removed for $40 bucks and no rim damage!!! Highly recommend!

I banged a 22mm socket on each one and removed for a total of $2.59 + tax and my time.
Cant beat that. And no damage to any thing

lordco sells a wheel lock remover kit made by performance tools for 14 bucks. It a socket to put on a impact that works in 5 seconds flat with no damage. I took mine off with an electric impact to, a plus if you dont have air.

whats the point of having wheel locks if they can take your wheels off in 5 min anyway? :P

a hammered on cheap 12pt 19mm socket takes off most of the wheel locks that I have come accross
