Issue with locking nuts, help!

Post by Stevieb91 »

Just a quick one, trying to remove an alloy to change a tyre over that's went flat.

When I've checked in the boot for the alloy locking key it doesn't seem to fit the bolts on the alloy.

I've googled high and low to try and find the correct locking nut/key i need but am unsure what i need.

If someone could please help me :).

I will attach a photo of the wheel nuts that are on the car.

Thanks.

Yes these are just wheel nut covers. You will have a tool like the one below in with your spare wheel to pull them off with.
