Any one know what I can use to take the wheel nuts off my car?
Got BK604 wheels but came on the car and didnt get anything to take them off with.
Got 12 X 1.5 on them. They look like the inside of a socket. Tried a spline fitting on them but didnt fit very well.
Emailed BK but not had a reply yet.
Any one got any ideas?

Think it might be a bit hard to undo wheel nuts with an allan key. but thats what a spline fitting is.

you can get hex bits that fit into a socket then you can use it on a wrench however long you want.

Tired them but didnt fit too well.
I'll try some wire wool inside them to get the crap out.

i work at halfords, but we don't do BK racing alloys, so doubt we would be able to get u the correct tool.
I had a bloke come into work the other week with the same problem, and we couldn't find anythin that fit correctly cos the star bit wasn't long enough to go into the hole and the socket bit was too big to fit in.
He ended up takin the socket anyway and was gonna punch the star bit out an fashion sumthin to it to make it work.

If u cant get it out and really need it out have someone weld a normal nut that you have a socket for and weld it onto the bk nut.
