so i was on my way to the gym tonight and all of a sudden my wheel starts shakin really bad, so im thinkin......blown tire :( . usually this would be no biggie, just make a phone call, pick up a tire tomorrow, and all would be said and done. but insert problem here.....i just picked up this car about 2 weeks ago, and i dont have the key for the front lugs :2up: . so i need to know where to get a key for this thing, or a way to get it off without breaking shit. i went home and put more air in it, and it rode fine to the gym, and home, but im not sure how much longer its going to last. if it comes down to it i might have to look for another set of 94-97 accord se rims (at least then all of the rims will match :D ) and throw some tires on them to get by. normally i dont mind waiting, but i gotta date this thursday (:idb: ) and i promised to drive, so i need some help asap.

here is what im up against....

Sounds like you need the key man. Try that.

if u cant find the key...an air hammer works. we've had to use one before. if your careful enough u wont hit the rim...but if it slips....it'll leave a good knick in the rim

I got one of those universal lugnut remover tools from o'reilly when I didn't have the key to mine, but I can't tell if it'll work for you or not.

Good seein ya' sunday, btw, even if under shitty circumstances

it was good seein you too matt. thanks for the advice, but the shop i always rely on when i cant do something told me they would order the key, replace my tire, and let me have it when i was done. so everything is cool. turns out a wheel weight fell off. but the tire still needs to be replaced so im gonna do that first thing tomorrow.
