All good ideas, but don't forget the most important thing when trying to
remove stubborn wheel locks........The usage of MANY colorful 4 letter

I done the socket method and it works great, but I've also used a die
grinder to put a slot in the top of the lugnut and then used an impact
driver to remove it.  The impact driver is a cheap tool at harbor freight.
