What are locking wheel nuts?
Locking wheel nuts or lug nuts as they can also be called are used to keep your wheels attached to your vehicle. These nuts have a special key that you need to have to remove them if you ever need to.
If you ever need to change or repair your tyres and need to get the wheel off you will need the locking wheel nut. Most garages will supply this when you purchase the car and normally you will find it in the glovebox, in the compartments in the boot or with the spare wheel.
Cant find your Locking wheel nut?
Lost your locking wheel nut and need to get the tyre off your vehicle? Do not worry we can help! We offer a Mobile Service where we will come to your home or place of work and remove or replace your locking wheel nuts. We can supply new locking wheel nuts or come out and remove them nuts for you. If you just need the locking wheel nuts removed we can come and do this for you for £40, if you require a replacement set of locking wheel nuts we can also source them for you at an additional charge. In some cases you maybe unsure of what locking wheel nuts you have as they may have been kept from a previous car, we are help you determine which ones are correct.
On some rare occasions we may not be able to remove all the locking nuts, such as if they are too tight or they have become corroded, which may result in us recommending you go a vehicle engineer instead. A vehicle engineer could then drill out the locking nuts if required.

Bit of a late review so sending my apologies! I phoned driveway tyres about two weeks ago to book an appointment to change my flat tyre I spoke to a lovely man called Mark who sorted everything for me he rang me back when he said he would and wasn’t pushy in making me choose the most expensive option etc (which puts me off as a customer) he even recommended a puncture repair but I said I’d rather a brand new one. The same day around midday (I called at 8:30am) John arrived outside my house at the exact time he said he would and within 30-45 mins he’d changed my tyre and checked the pressure on all the other ones! He even went to the lengths of showing me the cause of my flat tyre (a piece of glass had pierced through).... fab service, highly recommend, first time using driveway tyres and definitely won’t be the last!! Thank you very much Mark and John for your fab customer service couldn’t fault it ??

Had a puncture and need a tyre change out of normal working hours. Contacted Matthew and was back on the road within 2 hours of the call. No need to say anymore except what an outstanding service was provided.

Michael was excellent, very professional and the tyre was fixed very quickly and he explained the problem clearly. There was also excellent responsiveness in responding to our initial email & keeping us posted on timing. Job done within 14 hours of our late night email- cannot be faulted, thank you!
