I have a 1998 es 300. I need to change a tire but I do not have the lug nut key. Can anyone tell me how I can get the correct key? or do you know if a later model lexus would use the same key? my firend has an 06 es 330.

 

my after market rims had lug nuts had the same key after the store sent me additional sets of nuts/key(long story). could another 98' ES with the same rims have the same key? try it out or ask the dealer

 

The keys were usually plastic tie wrapped to the original lug wrench, under a plastic locator in the trunk.

It they are Lexus original equipment, McGard may be their brand.

I swore Lexus had master keys for getting them off. I know when I last took my RX300 up to the U.S., they got them off without even resorting to asking me for the key.

Incidentally, when I first came down here to Mexico, could not find key when I went for a tire rotation and balance and we had to BURN the old locks off. Worked, but what a PITA.

 

...do you have a local Lexus dealer nearby? They have all the keys to all the lug nuts, unless they're not oem lock nuts.
