Alot of tire shops have a socket that can remove them.I had mine removed that way.

Friend of mine works at a tire place and they can take it off for you. He hates doing it for people because it takes them forever to just take off the damn lugnut

aight, but remember guyz the problem is the car is at my house, and I have no way of getting it up to the shop as it doesn't have a tire....so i gotta figure out a way of getting the lug lock, u think they can lend me a couple keys and I can go and take them off and ****...?
