    Default E34 Locking Wheel Nuts

    Just brought my 2nd 540 and find that it is fitted with a security locking nut that requires a spline type tool to remove. The nut is perfectly round on the outer with the spline teeth on the inside. Is this a standard BMW locking nut, and if so, am I likely to be able to get a tool to remove it?!
    BTW, the car is fitted with the standard lattice style alloys.

    Thanks

    Ask seller if he has the key to remove it. Otherwise you need to get a lugnut remover to take it out.
