Really annoyed, i have lost the key to the locking wheel nuts!! Any suggestions on how to remove them? Not that It's important but the car is a 350i wedge.
T.I.A,

Have managed to get them off a bit quicker than that with the use of various tools.
(Afriad to say what toosls in a public place for fear of letting scrotes onto a sinister idea).

Just be aware there are ways and means....
if you have the right tools.

seconded. They get the problem quite often, so they'll be used to it.
