Take it to a stealership. They have a universal key. If their cool, they'll do it little to no cost. I accidentally left my key home in FL after I moved to TX. They removed them for the cost of regular OEM lugs that I had bought.

I had this same problem on my old car and we had to drill out the stud on one of my rims. Hammering the socket onto the lug worked on the rest and also had to use a air hammer on a couple.

Seems that the spinning collars would prevent the usual route of forcing a regular socket onto the lug, and relying on friction to loosen it.

edit: those wheel locks aren't for G35s. I just linked to them to provide an example of spinning collar lugs.

those look legit.. i wonder how well they would do.
