if you lost the key?
Any good ideas out there?
 
Find a pipe that is just a couple of hairs small. Pound it on then us a monkey wrench on the pipe.
 
The tire shop that I use has a similar technique to gzecc except they use an old socket to pound on to the lock instead of a pipe so they can drive it with an impact wrench.
 
Thanks for all the ideas. Turns out the dealer had a master key. Got them taken off for free. The dealer also gave us four regular matching lug nuts to replace them for free. Wow! That was easy.
