Default lug nuts?

When I bought my car the guy I got it from did not give me the security ket to get them off with so I had to have the shop that them off. no big deal right? Then they told me AFTER that they did not have the size to replace them with. So now I have 4 out of 5 lug nuts on all 4 wheels. Where can I get some security lug nuts for me car? I have a 2001 T/A WS6. Also what is the tire size I can have on the stock WS6 wheels?

just go to an autozone or some place like that around you, you really don't need the locks on there. the biggest size you can put on your stock wheels is 275 safely, some have used 315 but i would not rercomend it. lug nut locks usually run around 30 bucks or so, or you can get 4 lug nuts for about 4 or 5 bucks.

I have 275s on the rear, but I had to modify (grind down) my bump stops in order to keep from rubbing on the inner sidewalls.

275's came stock on ws6's so you won't have to grind your bump stops.
