those locking lugs are nothing but a pain. they all come with a serial number and phone number to call if you loose the key. they will send you a new one. but most tow companies can remove them.

VW are that way as well

No stud, a stupid bolt instead...
It makes it sooooo easy to align that wheel, again

I lost the lug key to my wrangler once and the guy at Midas used a grinder to "square" the lug and then used a wrench...was a pain though, and it was easy to access.

I fits a factory lock, the dealership has a universal key that fits all the ford locks. I hav one somewhere but need to look deep and hard as I havent used them in almost 3 years, since the factory lugs and keyes dot work on aftermarket rims. Any reputable wheels and tire shop can get them off with no problem. Probably charge you $20.
