Dealer up here says the car has the wrong wheel locks.... had them call the LA dealer to pay up for the new part... I really wish I would have found this post earlier.

Question thou --- is it safe to drive on these for 2 days until they get the correct part?? They don't even have the right lug nut to replace the locks here....
I would avoid driving on them. You're basically driving on 4 lugs per wheel until you get the right lugs/locks on there. You could end up breaking a wheel stud, or worse. I wouldn't trust it. If you have to drive it that way, keep the speeds and cornering forces low.
