gtr-r33 Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 I'm in need of a locking wheel nut, its a long shot i know but if anyone on here has this Style of Key any chance i can borrow it to get the wheels of then give it back ? As lost the Key. Trying to borrow a Key before i have to attack them with a Drill or some other tool. Have thought about un-doing the remainding bolts and driving around for a little bit with just the locking wheel nut in (Slowly and close to home obviously) just to see if it would work lose at all. Thanks people.. Quote

Please don't do that... could end in tears !!!! If its a genuine Nissan one then the Stealer's have a master I believe, Just buy your self some new ones before you go Quote
Goldcrest Four Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 You could try one of these www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/deta ... emover-2pc. Worryingly cheap. Quote

clarkie34 Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 Try ATS or Kwik Fit see if they have any tools. Quote
gtr-r33 Posted August 1, 2010 Author Posted August 1, 2010 Managed to get the Previous owners phone number of my mate so going to give him a ring tomorrow and see if he can find it anywhere, He may have it laying around somewhere... I Hope save me alot of hassle Quote
M13KYF Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 call the AA, they have a special tool that can get the nut off. Quote
Wookiee22 Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 I had this exact same problem a couple of days ago. Went to a local stealer who had a master set of about 20 keys (ring up ahead to make sure they have them), simply find the right one and they can have it in stock next day. Cost about 17 quid. Quote

gtr-r33 Posted August 2, 2010 Author Posted August 2, 2010 Thanks for the Input people.. I'm having trouble finding a Socket thin enough to even get the Normal 19mm Nuts off!! Doing my Brain in these wheels. I think they must have come with a Special Super Thin 19mm socket, Specially made for the wheel's. I've got a Ultra Thin impact socket but it still needs grinding down to fit between the Wheel Nut and the Rim.. Quote
