lost wheel lock socket

I am in a little bit of a tight spot. I have misplaced my socket that fits my wheel locks. Anyone ever had success getting these off without the use of the special socket? I have been told to take a socket that is smaller than the lockand drive it on. I have tried this with one, but all I got was the head of the lug to twist off. I can attack the rest of the lug in like manner, but before I do I thought it was worth a try to ask the list. I am sure that someone on the list has encountered this in the past. How was the problem solved? Thanks, Kevin
