The lad I bought the Coop off list the key for the Locking Wheel nuts for the after market alloys. I've tried the standard type but the keg is too big to fit the hole. So, I'm guessing it will be a slim version. Does anyone know of a shop etc that will be able to help me out.

Cheers in advance

Hammer a cheap socket on, that'll get them out

Do you know where he bought the alloys ?
There's only a few sets of locking nuts available so shouldn't be hard to track a spare down. Any photos ?
