Or.... spend $40 at Sears (or a Snap-On) dealer and get a set of lug nut removers that you can use time and time again instead of ruining sockets all the time. It's not rocket science.
to all the haters that think a thief will use this trick. . . think again . . tonite when it gets dark . . take any socket and beat the piss out of it. . . post a comment tomorrow if you haven't been shot or arrested. . that's a whole lot of bangin that you're gonna have the do . . good luck
what i did was used a strong cloth rag and a tight fitting socket. placed the rag over the lug then beat the socket onto the lug. then turn it with a ratchet or breaker bar(while putting pressure on the lug with my other hand) then when the lug is almost off, i bang the socket off of the lug. works every time.
If you use a craftsman socket you can take it to sears after you do this and they'll give you a new one for free. Just make sure you don't take it back with the lugnut still attached
@HairGirl28 Thieves wont go through the trouble of trying to do this, as it will attract way too much attention (the beating the shit out of it part) plus they dont want to waste losing up to 4 sockets
Also, I bought 4 lock sets :) So each rim has 4 keys and 1 normal lug nut. Goodluck taking off 16 keys lol (and if they can do it without people noticing... they deserve my wheels and my car! )
@30097spartan lol i bet you couldn't steal a rim even after watching this video. Would you feel better if I changed the title to "remove" instead of "steal"?
You do know that they make a tool to take locking lug-nuts off right? Most tire dealers have them. So if you need to get the other 3 off, and you don't feel like putting out the cash for the tool, take the car to your local tire dealer and ask if they can remove them for you. Then buy you next set of tires from the one that does it for free. Just because they were cool about it.
there's a company (may be UK based) called dynomec which do essentially this. They use an impact driver to remove wheel nuts without risk to damaging the wheel.
What's the size of that socket, im going to buy one!!

They sell a special socket at auto-zone, sears and or tool trucks that will take lock nuts off. And you don't have to ruin a good socket.
