Not sure what you're asking here. Can you explain it a little better?

You mean pulling the wheels off? All you need is a jack and a 19mm socket w/breaker bar or crossbar with a 19mm end for the lug nuts. 19mm socket will also pull the lug caps off.....

and that pos key used on the locking lugnut. if you don't have that key, get a good 12 pt 20 mm socket and beat it on with a bfh. i've had to do that...it works well.

Good point, I forgot about that because I pulled my locking ones off as soon as I got the car and swapped them with regulars. They are a pain to deal with if you take the wheels on and off a lot....
