hmm, did you register with th ecompany that you bought your wheel locks from? I think your best bet is to find out what company you got it from, and see what they can do, they probably gave you a model number or somthing to decode what pattern you have.

if there is a performance/accessories store close by your house try to give them a call and see if they could help you... the one over here charges 25 dollars per lug you need to get off..

snap-on makes a wheel lock extractor kit. I had to but it when a butt head over torqued my nuts! The kit came with 5 sockets and cost around $60 If you knew the exact size you can buy only that one socket! Chase down a snap-on truck! Or go to walmart and tell them to rotate the tires and they will do it, just get reguler nuts!

take it to a dealership (preferably one you know someone at) and they should have a key that will take them off.. My buddy works for BMW and they have a bit that like forms around they impression on the key its pretty cool...
