You can use a 12-point socket that barely fits over it. Hammer the socket on top of the lock about .5 inch and that should provide enough friction to allow to take it off.
Or you could spend the money and get the wheel lock remover tool from Craftsman.
^ either one of those will work. i tried the socket when mine was stripped but i couldnt get enough bite on it to remove it so i had to buy a Craftsman Lug Nut Removal set. It was a socket set that came with i believe 6 sockets. It only cost $30.

Where do you get one of these? The shop that put my IS wheels on earlier this year lost my key and it took forever to find someone that could take off the locks. I'd hate to go through that again.
A socket will work, I had to do that on the locks my car came with because the guy lost the key. Took a couple hard hits to get it to stay on but it twisted off finally.
