depends what locking wheel nut it is, you can get a socket over the cheaper ones, but u will have to hit it on with a hammer

I reckon its a cheap one to be honest...don't think anyone will spend too much protecting those awesome 13's Will give it a try...cheers

Halfords and Snap on do ROUNDED BOLT sockets, theyre black with teeth in there (looks like the vanes of the turbo) and they work Brill!

if its an internal one, get an old bolt and hammer in. then use a breaker bar.

im sure ive got the snap on ones but they arew sometimes to big to fit in to the rim (if alloys) if can not get off drill the head off the bolt

Chisel and a large hammer if everything else fails
