can't get the locking lug nuts off

I bought a used 1998 Isuzu Rodeo about a year ago. I got it at auction and didn't get the tool used to remove the lug nuts with it.

I need new tires now and all of the places I want to buy from (goodyear, wal-mart, etc- someplace with a warranty) have a policy that they won't break the lug nuts off.

What can I do? Can I buy this tool somewhere?

You can buy it from a dealer.

Most tire change places will have these too. Not for purchase but to change your tires with.

Call up the guys at St. Charles Isuzu and they will help you out.

Try here: http://www.mcgard.com/default2.asp I actually used to work for them years ago. If you don't have the lock/key code anywhere with the vehicle paperwork, contact them for a solution.

Re: can't get the locking lug nuts off

Heres a trick, I lost my lock key and the code, went on line and asked how to get the lugs off. The best suggestion and it worked like a champ is: Get an old socket that u dont want and hammer it on the lug, I cant remember the size socket, but use one that is just smaller in diameter than the lug. Hammer is on and it will acutally mold itself onto the lug, now just use a rachet and off it goes. knock the lug out of the socket and move to the next one. good luck
