Hey guys, i have a problem you see my mx-3 has rim locks on the standard mazda mx-3 rims, and when i got the car i never was given the locks, lucky for me the seller told me i was SOL, and I've tried everything to get them off, but to no avail, if anyone has any good suggestions they would be much appreciated, thanks.

happened to me also. the locks started to fall off b/c the mechanic would pull off a certain piece, not just the lock. somehow he got them off and on. i took it to the dealership. i had them break off the old ones and put new ones on. now i have a key. it wasn't very expensive.

the place i bring them to to get the tires rotated and wheels aligned (Tuffy's Tidy Car) can get them off without the lock, I have no idea how but I never give them the lock.

go and tell a car thieft.

Hey there,<BR> You can try this.... Get a 12 point socket that is a little bigger than the lock and pound it on. make sure it is a tight fit and use an impact wrench to loosen them. I have done this successfully three out of four times.
