Factory wheel lock nuts?
Are the locknuts supplied on the mags all the same pattern?
My '87 had none so has not been a problem.Have now bought a '90 with original locknuts so need to source factory adapter.
I know you can remove them with a rattle gun but have no air at home and car is not roadworthy to drive to tyre shop.

Get a cheap 13/16", 1/2", 12-point socket. Tap it onto the lugnut with a hammer lightly and it will grip enough to get them off. 
If the lugnut is stuck in the socket when you get it off, take a 3/8" extension and you can pop the lugnut out.

You need to contact the Customer Service department at
McGard.
It will be easiest if you are able to provide them with the information
from the registration card. If not, they have an alternate method
for assisting you.
