Wheel Tek lug key
Does anyone know where to get a wheeltek lug key? It's 8 squared splines. I found nothing on google what so ever.

If you cannot find it, the second best solution is to hammer on a socket that is just slightly smaller than the OD of the wheel lock and remove it with a breaker bar. I did this with the OEM wheels locks when the previous owner did not include them with the car.

Do you have a discount tire near you? It looks like the lugs they sell. I bet they would have a key socket.
