Default OT - Lug nuts

I've always thought that one of those "universal" sockets or a big stud
extractor might do the trick. There used to be a type of lug nut lock
that took an actual key in the center. Until it was unlocked the outside
just spun. This seemed conceptually neater than a funny-shaped nut but
I'm afraid it might not stand up to being hit with a hammer...
