Title: Wheel Lock Nut - No Key
Post by: Tuffy90 on September 30, 2017, 03:56:26 pm

Hi all,

Having an issue with a lock nut, have a puncture and need to get the wheel off to get fixed but don’t have the lock key! I’ve search endlessly on the net for similar but can’t seem to find anything. Anyone have a simple solution or point me in the right direction to get a key? Will be replacing wheels soon so need the others off too.

Thanks

local tyre centre should be able to help  I was charged £20 to remove all 4 with replacement bolts.  Make sure they remove ALL   Or perhaps 4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUTLC740Sx0

Went down to a local centre, nothing a hammer and an old socket couldn’t fix!
