I have a 94 GT and recently i got a flat tire on the rear right in my driveway.

thing is I can't take my whel off because it has one of those locking lugs that you need a special socket for.

And I don't have the socket, and the guy I bought the car doesn't either.

So how am I supposed to get the wheel off? I dont really want to pay a tow bill to a shop so they can cut the bolt off.

Get the size socket for that lock and hammer it in until it gets stuck onto the lock and rotate it to loosen it up! I had the same problem on my cobras and the size for mine was a 19mm.

will that wreck the bolt? and how would you get the socket off after you got the bolt off

You don't get it off. Socket will be ruined anyway by your hammering it on. This is the cheapest way to do it,since you don't want to take it to the shop.

so pump the tire up, then jack the tire up, find the nail or screw in the tire, when you do pull the nail and plug the hole, they sell plug kits at your local parts store, no tire removal necessary

Go down to sears buy a 20 dollar bolt off kit trust me its a great investment and use that to take it off and yes u are going to ruin the bolt but u have no key for them so y keep em on in the first place go down to pep boys or one of those and buy a new set of bolts and u won't have to worry about getting stranded any were

You can use a punch to get the nut out of the socket. Ive had to do it a couple time at work. Dont use an air tool the remove the socket just a breaker bar.

Hammer and chisel or a air chisel if you have access to one. You are going to have to buy a new lug nut anyway you look at it.
