After performing an all round brake disc, pad, and line change and flush/bleed this weekend just gone, the lock nut socket, or anti-tamper nut socket/adapter for my Ray's wheel/lug nuts has gone, seemingly never to be seen again.

Thankfully this occurred after I'd re-torqued all the nuts after driving home, however my rear tires are down to the first layer of canvas on the inner shoulders (much too much negative camber and aggressive driving) so the tires are due to be replaced, and I can't drive anywhere for fear of suffering a blow-out and not being able to change the wheel.

Is it possible to get a replacement adapter, or will I have to get the tire place to destructively remove the nut's (hopefully not damaging my rims) and I'll have to buy another set?

The other option I'm looking into, is to get the guys at work to machine me up a new one for a carton of beer.

 

I'm not sure what Ray's you have. I have the Volk GT-C's. Here's the link for the lock lugs with key:

Hope this helps.........

 

They sell replacement keys! Perfect!.

Thanks for that!
