lug lock problems PLEASE HELP!!
ok... i recently bought a 99 civic coupe and i am having problems with the wheel locks.. I brought it to advantage tire today .. and wanted them to slap on my new wheels well I explained to them i didnt have the key to the locks they said they would order them.. well they ordered them and one was 2 big and the other was 2 small .. so they sent me to rent n roll i bought a key that i thought would work.. but it kept slipping so as i was searching thru the car i found out the key was hidden under the spare tire.. so i tried using it.. it worked for about 5 lugs then started slipping i guess it stripped out.. what im really lookin for is a place that can remove my lugs on here ... i need a place asap !! thanks in advance!

The key fits inside the lug, Or around the outside?
If the key goes over the lug,........wrap some aluminum foil around the lug and try to loosen all the locks with the key and a 4-way...Not an air gun!!! and that should do it.
If the key fits inside the lugs.......Well, Your pretty much outta luck and need to order one or more of the identical lock key.

if you need help still, call my cell and ill see if i can get you into the shop...
Be forewarned though, without the correct key, the lugs can be damaged taking them off so its a good idea to have an extra set on hand...
