Wheel lock removal
hey, does anyone, at this ungodly hour have any tools to help me remove some wheel locks?
long story short, I was changing my wheels, and we did one side (dumb I know)..
when we went to the other side, I broke the key in the lock while trying to unscrew that one wheel. now I'm fucked... cause my car rides leaning one way.
anything is much appreciated. THanks

Re: Wheel lock removal
believe you me man. I was just out for 2 hours looking for a place that could help me. I tried sears, firestone, Joes, Coastal- (was sucesssful with one, but the fuckin tool broke and couldn't do the second one), pep boys, kramer tires, and who else knows...
If anyone knows anyone else that has access to a key for the wheel lock for a prelude.... that'd be cool too.

Re: Wheel lock removal
get a 12 point socket that fits pretty tight on the lug and beat it on with a hammer. Then just take your ratchet and loosen the the lug. It worked for me before.
