3/4" or 19mm circle cutter will drill off the lock and leave the threads intact if done carefully.

I'm pretty sure the lug nut that's under the lock is hollow. So, you should be able to drill out the lock without damaging the lug. That is, if you that the same type of wheel locks that I have where it's a locking cover with a fairly normal lug nut underneath.

go to the dealer - they can probably get you a key - it will NOT be free, but you won't damage your wheels
