Hi
I have a security lug nut on each wheel. I was just about to change a flat and the special lug socket fell apart.
So off i went to Autozone and the guy told me that i will not be able to buy a replacement.
If that is true, how do i get the nuts off so i can replace them?

 

You may have to write the company that manufactured them, if you wish to save them.
There is supposed to be a "master key" for most of these too, but you may have to make a few phone calls to dealers, if they are factory, or tires shops in your area.
Friday is not a good day to have this happen.
