Default How to remove wheel locks

Well i wanted to rotate my tires, and I can't figure out how to get the wheel locks off.
I bought the car used, but it has the spare tire and tire changing tools. Are one of the tools that come with the car used to remove the wheel lock? If it is I'm not smart enough to figure out how to use it.

Any help on what tool i need and how to use it would be great

wheel locks are aftermarket. If you dont have the key try a tire shop, they may have one.

Try the glovebox first though.
