Lost the key for locking wheel nuts!!

[Ben.]

^^ as above really, i have lost the key for my locking wheel nuts. The wheels are the mk2 ph2 172 and are on my mk1 clio. How would i go about getting the wheels off? would they have to be drilled?:S

Depends what type of locking nut it it is you can sometimes get away with shacking a undersized socket onto them and getting them out like that but there scrap then.

They are aftermarket ones, the ones that halfords sell!!

As long as they haven't been overtightened, hammer, long thing drift and a fat massive one.

Smash them over the centre a couple of times to shock them - no pussy hits proper hard.

Then whack them round (anti-clockwise) with the thin one.

Works everytime and I've done loads
