ABN® | Twist Socket Set – 5 Pc Metric Lug Nut Extractor Socket Set Bolt Grip

OK - I lost my locking lugnut key. Darn!!! Warning light said I had a low tire pressure, and here I am with no way to get the tire fixed. Youtube and ABN to the rescue. Some of the videos suggested hammering a slightly larger (sacrificial) socket onto the locking lugnut. I tried that, but, NO dice. Just couldn't get it to bite. A few other videos suggested welding a nut on top of the lugnut, but the videos showed wheel damage AND marginal results. Could not see doing that, and besides, I don't have a welder. There was also a video showing the use of a pneumatic chisel to try and impact the nut loose, while destroying the nut, and probably hitting th mag wheel as well. Although I had a compressor and hose, I DIDN'T have a chisel. The risks and equipment costs also didn't make sense. THEN, I came across videos showing the ABN Twist Socket Lug Nut Remover SET. Less than $30 including tax. I ordered the set, and it arrived today. I immediately decided to try it, and WOW! 15 minutes later, I had removed all four locked lugnuts, and replaced them with the four original lugnuts I COULD find in my toolbox. THIS deserves 5+ stars, and will work for many other recalcitrant nuts, should I ever need this kind of solution again. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND this to you!

Had someone steal my wheel lock key so I measured the outer diameter of the security nut, bought these, used the 20mm extractor socket and whacked it with a rubber mallet. These worked amazingly. Saved time. Hardest part was removing the security nut from the extractor socket. Good thing they include the removal bar. 5/5😋😋

Tenía las tuercas de las llantas barridas, y con esta herramienta la pude sacar y poner la llanta de refacción

Worked like a champ! I had tried a regular socket with a cheater bar (a 1" steel pipe about 3 feet long), and it just tore up the acorn and stripped the edges on the nut underneath. I put the extractor socket on the ruined nut, tapped it a couple times with a hammer to seat it fully, and then put some muscle on it with the cheater and it came right off. Good product!
