    There are special sockets for this. I saw one at my local surplus store.

    Or you can use a 13/16 or appropriate socket. Bang it on with a hammer and
    try spinning them with a rachet or breaker bar. Be careful as you can damage
    your rims by doing it this way.

    Oh course, you'll first have to prove that you're not asking for help stealing
    somebody's wheels.

    Call up your local bigbox tire dealer and ask them. They can take off
    anything.
