EDIT: Matt came through with the key and problem solved. Thanks again man...let me know if you ever need anything. Thanks for all of your help and suggestions.



So I am trying to remove my front left wheel/tire (ROTA's w/Gorilla Tuner Lugs). The last person (shop) to put the wheels on got a little carried away with the impact wrench and I CANNOT get the lugs loose. AND, the key is stripped...so it turns freely around the lug when torque is applied. The guys at Auto Innovations know exactly what I'm talking about...they torqued/twisted a key that they had trying to get the lugs off of the back wheels to install camber bolts.

Does anyone have a Gorilla Lugs Key that I can borrow for like five minutes. I'm in Palo Alto but can come to you. There's a six pack of Red Tail in it for anyone who feels nice enough to lend a brotha a hand.

Thanks in advance!!!!

I have a gorilla lug nut key thats only collecting dust along with the lugs u can take it for 5.00 ahahahahahah, was trying to sell it a while back but was hard to get rid of the red lug nut color and all =(

That's awesome...I've sent you a p.m. Thanks again.

Thanks alot! Very helpful...I'm guessing that I can pick up a #10 bolt off tool from Home Depot/OSH. Thanks again for the tips.

Gorilla lugs are the POS I'm finding out...quality lugs make a huge difference (I know...you get what you pay for).

 

Matt hook him up...so I can get his wheels!!!

 

HAHAHAHA! Good times...I'm working on it Dave....so as NOT to damage your new wheels. Later.

 

Is anyone taking you up on that offer?

 

I was hoping that you would post...you can tell that I'm working really hard huh. WHATEVA! mcdrama might stop by with a key and there will be six frosty one's waiting. As soon as I can get these lugs off, mbquarts will have his wheels and I will have pics of the new goldies.

 

You can see I'm hard at work also...

Can't wait to see pics of the car though....

 

oh man, you should have told me your wheels were going to Dave! I will be over soon, just gotta get my lazy **** in the shower. I will bring my camera too.

 

The six frosties should be motivation itself

 

btw marty, my name is Matt not Mike.

Thanks for the red tail ale, it be some good *** beer!

 

A$%! Sorry Matt...thanks again man.
