This summer I lost my key to my locking lug nuts. I had some work done to my rear a few months ago and my mechanic was able to somehow mangle the rear ones off without the key.
I'm now trying to install rims and the backs are on but now I need the front ones on. I tried for about 2 hours last night to get the god forsaken locking lug nut off. I took a chissel to it and chisseled off about half an inch of it, then I turned the chissel sideways so that it was hitting the lug nut in the direction to break it loose. No luck. The chissel just digs deeper into the lug nut. Now the lug nut is just molded crap, the lug stem is shot, and I still cant get my from rims on.
All I want to know is how to get that damn lug nut off, or how I can break off the lug stem, I'll replace it later, I just want my rims on for now. Anybody have any suggestions?
