I knew it was a matter of time till I lost it.

Was going to rotate the tires today, but couldn't find my wheel lock nut. Any clue where I can pick up the adapter? I don't have a p/n.

Re: I knew it was a matter of time till I lost it.

if you have a nice socket set take which ever one is slightly too small to fit over the lock and take a hammer and beat it on there...then use a wrench to get it off.

That looks like a Mcgard or OEM Honda lock nut, am I right?

Re: I knew it was a matter of time till I lost it.

Yeah, getting it off isn't really the big problem. My rotation can wait a few more weeks. I know that Honda or even Wal-Mart can get it off. It's not like I'm sitting on the side of the road, I just need to buy another adapter to replace the one the elves have stolen, but there are a bunch of different adapters out there and don't know the name of the one I have.

Re: I knew it was a matter of time till I lost it.

you can simply buy another set of mcgard/honda locking nuts and key but you need that lil card that came with your current set that has the code number. i think they make several different keys and nuts. if you lost it, you have to get a whole new set and change out all the old nuts. dealer has all the master honda locks, or you could look on ebay for the theives essentials kit which is a huge collection of many different lock keys for lug nuts. chances are it will have one that fits yours.

i found one key but not sure if it matches yours

That's why I wouldn't even bother with locking nuts - if someone wants your wheels, they'll have the tools and they'll get 'em! But if you really want them, you're probably best to just get a new set.
