Do you have a key number for your locking wheel nut set? Use that to get a new key.

I was told that you find a tight socket bit, bash it over the end of the nut so its nice and tight, then basically jolt it n undo it that way. then i had to do it myself. worked a treat. if you got those spinning edges on the locking wheel nuts then it wont really work.

whack a socket over it. if its got the spining collars on them then you have to chisel them off first

If its the rears then take the whole hub assembly off and drill it.
