Blazer question... will you help me out?
Hey guys I hope this finds you well,
As you may have noticed I am a new member, and I am currently seeking advice in regards to my 2000 Chevy Blazer. When I bought the car from a local used car dealership, the dealer had given me a special key; he said I would need this key to unlock the tires in order to remove them for routine maintenance. However it appears that I have lost the key and all search attempts have been unsuccessful.
When the time came for the car to have its regular repairs such as new brake pads and an alignment, I took the car into to a mechanic shop hoping they would such a key although they did not and had no ideas as to where to find one. Then I began look in stores and online, however nobody seems to know what I’m talking about.
If anyone has heard of such a key that is need to unlock tires off a 2000 Chevy Blazer, or knows where to find one please respond to this and help me out. Thank you very much.
Sincerely
Daniel

Locking wheel nuts were a great invention...that is unless you lose the key like you have. If Blazers had of come stock with locking wheel nuts then you could have just gone to a dealer to get one of the keys to remove them. Since they didn't come stock though chances are they are aftermarket added by the previous owner. There is really no way to find a key either.
I agree with the locksmith idea. Maybe they can pick it somehow for you.
BTW - Welcome to the forum from Canada. Sorry it couldnt be on better terms

Post a picture of the lugnut in question. I dont think a locksmith will be able to do anything , cause if they are the way I think they are its not an actual 'key' that you need. Usually a special socket , and if you can match up what kind of locking lugnut it is at the parts store then presto- you got a key.
Also , GM did put locking lugnuts on some vehicles , my 99 WS6 T/A had them from the factory.
If all else fails you could use an OD EZ-out and get them off and scrap them.
