2Fast, It doesn't sound like he has room for one of those. I have a set of those and I know they are even bigger than regular sockets.

NYC1, is there a way you can post a picture of how tight things are?

I had to use thin wall sockets to mount my wheels which were Cobra R's as well, so I don't think that's too much of a problem. The socket I saw actually had a wall that tapered down so thin it came to a point on its edge. The guy that did mine said he deals with those locks all the time and has never had trouble getting one off. Mine was no exception. I can try to swing by that place today and see what brand of kit it is if they are open.

cool. let me know so I can ask for them by name.

Thanks

I've never tried to post a pic here. How do you do that? I know this other site, you had to sign up for yahoo etc..

When you enter your message there is an option at the bottom to attach a file. Just attach the pic and we can all download it. Another way would be to link to a picture that is posted on a web site somewhere using the IMG code.

just one more suggestion
 
I had to do this on a coworkers car !
and he had cobra r's. We cut small sections
of duck tape ,and recesed the tape along ,and
inside the lug well (all around the hole to protect it)
then we took a (yes air chisel) and made a common
screw diver indentation into the top of the lock ! deep
enough to turn the lock off And because we stuck the duckTape all around the opening . There was no damage :) hope this gives you some ideas
