matt b Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 It's not just that: the wheel lock key has 4 small bits that fit into holes on the lip of the locks. The bits broke off and the holes look damaged on the locks. I think I'm going to end up drilling them out and replacing the wheel studs. <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt b Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Take the car to a machinist. I think it's the wise decision. I don't want to tie up an afternoon drilling out two studs and risk damaging the Gotti wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried that: no room between lock and wheel, these things are snuuuuuuug. I'll get it off one way or another, even if that means taking it to a shop.
