I have a 2002 that I bought pre-owned a couple years ago in FL (from Chevrolet dealer). I didn't realize until recently that the key for the locking lug nuts that are on the car were missing.
I live in NY now and the dealer I bought the car from doesn't have the key (it was worth a shot) and said I would need to get the locks broken off. My local dealer said they wouldn't touch the wheels for fear of damaging them.
The wheels are stock (I believe the lug nuts are as well but have no way to verify) and I'm wondering -- hoping, actually -- that someone might have a better solution to this problem. Would another Corvette lug key work? Is breaking them off really the only way?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
