Default Calling all Wheel ID Experts Help!

All,

I have to find a lug key for my wheels lug nuts. My problem is that I did not buy the wheels on my truck and therefore do not know who the manufacture is so I can buy the key. If you know the manufacture of these wheels please respond. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Jake

You can take the right size 12 point socket and hammer on them and take them off. Or take it to a tire shop and pay them to do the same. Then buy a new set of locks with a key.

Knowing the rim wont help you find the key to the lug locks though.

I second Weeds method. Had to do this to mine when I first bought it. The dealership didn't have the key when they sold the truck to me. I just found a socket that barely fit over the end of the lug and hammered it the rest of the way on. Mine came off without much effort.
