Sure, drive over here and I'll loan you my lug remover kit

Do you have any 12 point sockets? If so, find a size thats close and drive it on with a BFH. If not, you can take it to most any auto repair shop, they should have the lug remover kit ( a special socket set just for removing locking lugs with no key).

12 points usually work pretty good though.
