I bought a set of wheel locks from AK tires. I put the wheels in my friends car since mine was down for a while. After four months my car is running again. I tried to switch wheels but I couldnt find the key. I would really like to put my wheels (Rota c8s) on because I hate riding on his wheels (polished aluminium). I called AK tires and the only way they can find the key is if I have the key number which I dont. The lock nut is a circle with 7 half circle knobs on it. There is a space between one of the knobs. So in essence it looks like a flower with 7 petals. Is there anyway I can break this? You can pm if you dont feel comfortable sharing this info. Thanks.
