[williamsvts]

socket and a hammer.

you can buy a socket i got one in the garage and inside it is all metal wires about 20 them which can be pushed in each one! depending shape your nut you might be able to use this you put it on and will take the shape of the locking nut inside the socket and hopefully be able to turn it!!

old socket + lump hammer, 5 mins later = all off
easy! i should know ive done it twice, lol

[potatopete]

So this means locking wheel nuts aren't that good, security-wise, if they're that easy to get off?

ask hessle to lend his and hamer it on!

thats what i did :P

[s60tsy]

well youd hear it if they were on your drive whacking away with a hammer, dunno bout that gator thing though, i would of thought the socket for the gator would be too big for the hole on some alloys

they are good coz if someone needs to use a socket and a hammer there gona draw attention to themselfs at night trying to take them off, anyway there is a way around anything if you know how

£20 from argos

[s60tsy]

hammer and socket then buy some more locking nuts with my £20

[potatopete]

I now have his exact problem!
I have bought a new set of locking wheel nuts, and will soon need to get the old ones off so I can get new tyres.

How exactly is it done with an old socket and a big hammer?

(If I offer rep, will that persuade anyone to give me a real good answer??!!!)
