Take a picture of the lugs , What the tool a male or female tool ?
Male being one that you insert in the lug - female being one that you install over the lug,
If by chance its a star male tool , I know some 3/8" socket extensions will work to get them off,
Hope I helped and good luck ,
Keep us updated

Ditto. Had Discount Tire take mine out without the key and I told them to put stock lugs on. I won't run wheel locks ever again.

i actually am using a 17 long socket with an L ratchet. Works like a charm.
