Can anyone advise what i can do? My locking wheel nut key broke tonight and i need to get my wheel off. I bought some reverse thread sockets and tried that and now i have that stuck on the locking nut and can't get either off my car. The reverse thread socket just keeps turning, i think the locking nut must have something on it to stop the use of this type of tool or chapping a smaller socket on.

Ahhhhhhhhh

 

Have you got a picture? Post it. Can help from there. I have used a hammer and smaller size chuck to get a lock on the lug, applied a ton of force - which will likely help, but damage the stud in process (which can be replaced). What have you got?

 

I've got the McGard nuts with the rotating collar, problem i've got is i have this stuck on the bolt now
