I know from the brakes i need some more pads but i have been putting it off cause iam unemployed at the moment but earlier today i saw smoke coming from the hood. and only came out when i pressed the brakes. and on top of that the wheel lock and the wheel lock lugs are striped any ideas on how to take em off? I am gonna have a better look at it in the morning.

There's a set of sockets sold at Sears used to remove stripped lug nuts.

You may have to chisel away the Lock nut. Do not know of anything else to do. When you do, best to practice safety, wear safety eye glasses and gloves.

Try putting a slightly smaller size of that socket I mentioned earlier and hammer it onto the lock nut to establish some sort of a grip.

Well I went ahead and stoped at this local tire shop and they got the wheel lock lugs off in like 5minutes. And the best part was they charged me 5$. Sorry guys and gals didn't have to break out the chisel. Lol

i would have just chopped the car in half right down the middle, drilled from the inside then hot glue the car back together. its really the easiest way..just sayin...

Yup...just take an impact socket of slightly smaller size and hammer it on the lock. Then use impact wrench to remove.
