Default HELP!!!!!!!! Broke tuner lugnut key!!

Hey guys/ladies, need help. As you can see in my pics my lugnut key is cracked. I was stubborn and didnt fix it the first time, and now of course my tire has a huge hole in it and cant take the rim off. I need my car by Monday so i can go to work. Is there anyone that can weld the crack or help me out here with a lugnut removal kit or something? I'll throw in some cash for your trouble. I just need this asap.
Just PM me if you can then we'll go from there.

Thanks folks.

I have rota gt3's if thats makes any diff./also says " A-56" on the key. dont know what brand the lugs are

they're Kyokugen Lightweight Wheel Lugs(heptagon 7sided), so if anyone has that key for them, that would be great

Your local auto store should carry a lug nut removel kit. 15bucks I paid for mine works great.

I posted this some time back. Thin "tuner" sockets break if you have more than 4 lugs of this type on the car. They break if you EVER impact a lug.

If you keep the lugs, you need to buy TWO sockets and before the first one breaks.-Bob
