How to Remove locked lug nuts no key mitsubishi 1998 montero sport?

My daughter in law bought this truck used about a year ago.Didn't know anything about locking lug nuts till now.Sitting in my drive way with a flat.Been all over this small town,nobody can/will help me.I will go back with regular lugs,just please tell me,what can i do to get em off.Tried a grinder,not enough excess.Do you think i should put a cold chisel on it ?Done been to auto zone and wal mart.No help there.

Update:

Thanks to all,she has some fancy alum.rims and an angle dosen't get in to it.

Update 2:

Thanks to all once again.Due to a brain injury,i have huge problem processing information.I can only focus on one thing at a time.I finally realized that in the center was a type of hub cap.When i got it off,there was plenty of room for an angle grinder.My trade in life was a welder,have had very much experience with grinders.

    Mitsubishi Lug Nuts

    you can buy a new set of locks at the autoparts store if you're lucky enough to find the same lock pattern..

    or, use a angle grinder to make the round lug square so you can get a vise grip or ratchet on it

    Or, I also once Made a new key out of a huge bolt and a bench grinder...but that would take hours

    You could try a pipe wrench, if you can get it on the lugs. There are also specialty sockest, that are used to remove locking lug nuts. One is hammered on, the other is screwed over the locking lug. You can find the screw on type through Sears for $13. See source link below.
