Hey guys i have a big problem. The problem is that when i bought my car it came with 18 inch rims on it very nice look and all but when i got the car the guy told me that he lost the key for the lug nuts. Its a special key and i dont know nor does the previous owner know who even makes them. How do i go about getting these damn rims off? I need new tires and want to get new pads as well as e-brake bads as well and i cant even do that because the i cant get a tool to get the lug nut off?
Help is very much appreciated!! its almost like an inward 8star almost as if you would need an allen key but its an 6 star instead of the normal 6. |

WOW..............When i bought my celica, it didn't come with the key for the gold wheels it used to have. Here is the solution if its like the horrible lug nut that it had and you probably have.
A STRONG Craftsman (3/8th's??? its the medium size, most common)extension on a 1/2 Companion breaker bar with the adapter so you can use the extension. The extension is a square, yes, but it should fit inside the star shape perfectly. Make sure you use a craftsman extension as I broke 3 no-name extensions in the process. |
