My wheels are currently attached using volk gtc lock nuts however I dont have the lock key to remove them and I need to get new tyres. Is there anywhere in brisbane area that can sell a replacment lock nut or anyone know of any wheel shop prefferable south side that would have the tool and be able to replace the tyres withouth damaging the lock nuts and wheels?

umm you can't change your tyre if you get a flat?

my suggestion....get a set of metric an imperial impact sockets. bash the ones that just fit on hard, then undo it. throw the lock nut in the bin and repeat 19 times. put normal wheel nuts on, or locknuts you have a key for.

or just throw your spare tyre and jack out. no point lugging it around.

Yeah i know it is pretty dodgy I have got in contact with the old owner so hopefully he can find the key and send to me. I dont really wont to destroy the lock nuts but it is my last resort.

Duncan,

Straight up, GTC wheel nuts are different and "normal" ones don't fit. So he would have to spend $100-200 in purchasing another set with or without a lock nut.

Try finding someone with one. As you are.
