if you bring it to a shop that knows what they are doing, they can take your lock off in a few seconds without your key. (you'll need a new lug to replace the broken lock though)

And then you'll see that wheel locks dont really do much.

and if you lose another 1, you'll only have 2.

Do you have a photo of the car from the side? I would like a better look at your wheels. Very nice from what I can see. What are they, where did you get them, and how much $?
