Locking wheel nuts key stripped….useless!

[Dominic Loy]

Have tried all the suggested solutions (hammer a tight socket on etc) to no avail. Would this work….Go to a safe area….Remove all the other nuts from the wheel….Put her in reverse….Get up a bit of speed then jam the brakes on…..Hopefully the tire will skid and the anti-clockwise energy will break the nut loose….What do you think?

I would suggest using a cold chisel and hammer and try to split the wheel nut or perhaps a die grinder and cut into the nut.
