If you have dealer wheel locks they have a master key. Otherwise a shop would have to break/cut them. I'm not sure of any other way but I'm sure this has happened to someone else here before.

do you happen to know what brand wheel locks they are? This happened to me and the place where i got them had one that was close enough to get them off. actually they gave it too me. now, thats customer service.

try discount tire if there is one near you.

I think that depends on whether they have a key that's close enough. Either way, this situation sucks for you. Hope it works out.
