Look in the bag in the spare tire area that contains the jack and tools.
Its put there whenever they come with locking lugs from the factory, and usually after installed by a dealer.

yea, that'd be a good place to look... if you still cant find it try this... mine lock nut key actually stripped... so what i did was take an air chizle(spelling???) and just cranked it off with that, it took a bit, but it worked... if your careful enough you wont screw up ur stud, if you do its pretty cheap and easy to replace anyway...

Just pound a socket on it. If I remember correctly 20mm is the size. The lugnut comes out easy as well.

Email for more help.

if you can't get it out that way, if none of the shops around there have the tool you need, if the pouch doesn't have it and if you don't want to risk damaging ur stud you can call the a dealership, www.mitsubishigraveyard.com and call Gary. these places should have it.

2g lugnuts are 19mm, or 3/4

He should pound an 18mm on it, or even a 17
