Locking Wheel nut help

[Stuart]

I've got a set of aftermarket locking wheel nuts on my car. The other day the socket piece broke and now I cant get the nuts off. I've been to halfords where I get them about a year ago and they are unable to help as I've lost the packaging the nuts came in that has the pattern number on. Ive been round a couple of garages to see if anyone can get them off but to know avail. does anyone have any ideas as to how I can get them off???

Try a specialist wheel place, or an alloy refurbishment company, apparently there are "secret sockets" which can remove any locking nut. So I heard

most tyre/wheel companies should be able to break the bolts out, you'll get charged for them doing that. failing that drill them out

Butchery,

Take a socket that seems like it might go on, a big hammer, brute force and ignorance........


Not recommended but as a last resort??????
