Can't remove locking wheel nut..

[Ash_z]

Tried to fit my new wheels today and fell into some trouble with one of the wheel locking nuts :mad:

It has no thread at all and is totally rounded off..

How can i remove it? Who should i contact?

I changed all the wheels and it came to the last one and this :(

Appreciate your help guys..

bang on 19 (or what ever socket which will go on bolt tight.)socket- just hold it on it and hammer it on- thats what tyre shop done for me then my locking bolt socket disappeared.

I lost the tool required to remove the locking wheel nuts so I bought some locking wheel nut removers from Halfords.

Something like these:

I then took it to a garage and got some help!

You could also try this... looks like it could be decent

I have lost the bloddy locking wheel nut after buying a new set of locking wheel nuts arghh they are oem locking nuts though.

Moe if they are oem lockers just get a socket and knock it on with a club hammer,they come off really easy.However if you get stuck come over at the weekend I'll get them off for you ;)
