I need to get my spare tire off but there is like a 6 point bolt in there. I checked the owners manual and it said i needed the "key" to unlock it or something.

Is there something i can do to get the tire off? I tried using a 12 point sockets but i couldn't seem to find the right size to fit it.

Anyone know how what size or a way to get it off without the "key"

The cheap fix I believe is a cheap 9/16" socket, an extension and a hammer. Then crank it down with a ratchet and once down break the key part off then the normal jack handle will work.
