I cannot find the damn lugnet key anywhere! I honestly have no f'n idea how this thing could have disappeared, but I checked everywhere and this thing is gone. So now how do I get my wheels off??

A Tire and Wheel shop will be able to help you, Wheel Works charges $10 a wheel. They should do it for free if they want a new tire customer.

Or.....you can call Ho over here and he will do it for free. I'll get the set from my tool box at work and do it one day after work for you. It's better than pounding on a smaller socket (like everyone is probably going to say to do). Anyway, I'll get a hold of you.

I was taking my wheels off once and my key snapped on me. I just got a metric socket (can't remember what size) and pounded it on. It worked, but you'll have to buy new lugs.

I've been in Green Valley a few times to visit a friend and I've also driven through Vacaville a few times on my way to Chico. I know the previous owner lived somewhere in Vallejo, I'd like to get a hold of him if anyone knows him.
