i KNOW this is a long shot. i was taking the wheels off the car today to finally settle in and get some work done. as i was trying to get one of the lugs off, for some reason the key slipped and fell off. i found that the key now has a one inch long split down it and is useless. i dont know if someone has one of these laying around but if you do, let me know and i’ll meet up with you asap. each key is stamped with a number, the one that i need is 1921SD. PM me and i’ll get back to you soon.

It’s just a generic 6-spline key. Any import shop that sells wheels will have extras in stock, they may even give it to you.

i’ll probably end up doing this if worst comes to worst and no one has a key i can borrow. these lug nuts are definitely not going back on the car so i can avoid future problems like this.

Hammering on a socket is if you lost your lock-lug key, not if you lost your tuner-lug key. Do you really want to buy 16 12-point sockets to get your lug nuts off? I’d rather drive to Buffalo with my key than see you do that.

Just go to an import shop and ask for a key that fits those lugs. Trust me, you’ll find one.
