Locking wheelnuts

[Robbo 41]

Help I need to get my wheelnuts off and Ive broke the key (code 199)
Anybody out there in the liverpool area with this code, could I use your key for five mins to get the nuts off my wheels.
Cheers robbo.

Hi mate I had the same problem as i lost the key I had to get a old socket and smack it over the locknuts to get them off

[Sean-2.2Direct]

what side of liverpool you coming from mate?

[Robbo 41]

Ta for that but they have a spining collar around them so smacking a socket on doesnt work. Coming from south side.
Cheers robbo.

mate , use a screwdriver and hammer to snap the spinning collars off .
Then u need a socket bigger than the nut and a breaker bar ( the one with the pivoting head ) for leverage.
I could make a joke about scousers not being able to remove alloys , but I shall refrain .
Good luck mate .
If all else fails a local garage or tyre place should get them off without charging the earth , maybe a fiver a wheel ???

i just had the excact same problem but i also ***** up the bolt on the wheel, tried loads of garages and they wouldnt or could not do it, in the end i had to hav a bar welded to the nut and cranked it of that way what an pain in the arse. i hate locking nuts

Cheers for the replys, will give the old screwdriver a try. When these little Mof%$^&rs come off they are definately not going back on. Never ever fit locking wheelnuts to your car!!!

Don't you belive it, I've just had to remove a set off of a naighbours car, cheepist quote he had was £40.................the izuzu dealers wanted £98 plus the cost of a new locking nut set at £30.

cost him a few beers for me and £15 for a set of nuts from the local discount place.

Best of it all is, he found the locking nut key 2 days later in a seat pocket.
