Default WTB Lug nut security socket.

Do any of you have the tool / socket that fits over this version of the security lug nut? Sorry for the pic size and drawing, very difficult to get a good pic of the pattern.
Please PM me with price.

Thanks,

The local dealer should have a complete set of stock wheel locks.

Recommend once you get the locking lugs off you trash them and replace with standard lugs.

The only person ever detered by wheel locks is the owner of the car.

They way I get those off is to take some soft finishing nails and stick them to some of the cutouts with axle grease, with the points outward. Then I hammer on a 12 point deep socket (not too hard) and remove the nut. Then discard the nut. When the nut is most of the way off you can tap the socket a bit to pop it off the nut, then remove by hand. If you do it right the nails smoosh into some of the socket flats and provide grip.
