    These cam on my truck with stock dipped wheels. I lost the wrench key to remove them. I was wondering if these came from Toyota and can they remove them if they did? Thanks. DIMG_7101.jpg

    They're aftermarket. Hopefully the previous owner left the tag from the package in the glovebox or owners manual. If so, you can gorilla with that number and they can send you a new key.
    If not, a tire shop should be able to get them off.

    looks Like a mcguard wheel lock, if you can’t find a key I’ve had success hammering on a slightly undersized socket. Note you will need one socket per wheel lock you wish to remove.

    I had this issue recently with one of my Tacomas. My friend at the tire shop used one of these. Took it right off. I think I'll pick one up for myself. IMG_1678.jpg

    Yes thanks. 19mm 16 sided socket pounded on and they came right off. Now I have four sockets with locking bolts stuck in the ends of them? Peace. D
