Default Replacement Rays Lock Keys?

As the title states ha.

Ive got rays lug nuts and I somehow managed to lose the wheel lock and cant find it anywhere!

What are my option besides buying a new key?

Will normal lugs fit on my works cr-kai's?

Im sure it will magically appear when i dont need it but right now I do in order to change my pads and replace my lower camber arms!

I highly doubt the factory lugs will work. you cant get a socket around them because of how fat they are in aftermarket wheel lug holes.

chances are no.

what they may try is to find a throwaway socket of similar size and ram it on to the lock with a hammer, then impact it off

I know this tread is old but I just bumped into this problem and saw on eBay that they now sell replacement key and they show you how to identify which lock you have. The sell for $35 each

I totally could have used this info about a year ago haha. I totally got stuck until I found a friend that had a key I could borrow. They had ground down the little "notch" in the key so anyone with Rays lugs could use it.
