Re: Locking wheel nut - how to remove !
Ive had a few locking nuts get stuck over the years, never had to resort to cutting the wheel up to get it out...

Re: Locking wheel nut - how to remove !
I remember my locking wheel bolt's "unique head" just sheer round. Was a complete NIGHTMARE to get it out. In all fairness to him, at least he got the wheel off inside of an hour and not a day (after his other failed attempts!). And had mucho fun cuttin his wheel up!! tee hee hee!! There is something satisfying about destroying something that is nice and expensive.... :S

iv got a set of these just stick the 1 you need (a good tight fit) on to a extenshion bar and drive it on with a lup hammer. use a nice long bar and go steady it will eventually come away they remove rounded bolts aswell
worth ther weight in gold
