spline drive or recessed key?

spline drive- take a socket that is *just* smaller then the splines and hammer it on there then use the socket wrench to get it off

recessed key- weld a bolt head to the end and take it off with that, or drill it out and replace the wheel stud (there fairly cheep)

i think the tool terry is refering to is made by Snap-on or Mac tools (sears *may* have one). however there like $40-$60 for the set of 5

see if you could rent one from autozone :shrug

or just take it to the dealership or wheel shop and see if they can remove it.

All your major tool chains should have them. I have seen them at vatozone in the past. Sears should have one or you can take it to a tire shop and they can do it for you.
