I had Gorilla locking lugs but switched back to standard...

The key actually started to slip and wear out from switching tires all the time. Pieces of ----.

i was gonna say... i have gorilla lug nuts, and the ones on your car are not gorillas, unless they make different sets

---- if you can get just one off, it might say who makes them, and the different pattern right on the nut.


but your best bet is to just go to a tire shop, or pep boys or some ----.. they should have a droor full of different keys.

Ha ha mother ******* I FINALLY got those bitches off!!!

I got a key that was just a little bit bigger than the lugnuts (smallest I could find). I then used an impact gun and put alot of pressure upwards so the "key" was at an angle and would grab the sides of the lugnuts with the tip of the key. Took a bit for some of them but it got them off. Im so ------- glad.....

Thanks for everyones input (nowe someone come and buy those Nissan wheels in the 1st pic.
