MGTF Wheel nut caps are stuck

Hi folks... any help on the below situation is appreciated.



My car tyre blew out at the weekend and when I went to change the tyre, I found I was unable to remove the caps from the wheel nuts.

The cap on the locking nut came off no bother, but the other caps wouldn't budge.

I broke my Wheel Nut Cap Removal Tool in the process.



I got another tool off eBay and, after tapping the nut caps with a hammer to slightly loosen them, I've still had no luck removing them, and have now damaged the new tool.

I have also tried some of the other suggestions in previous threads such as leveraging with 2 thin screwdrivers and using vise-grip pliers. Nothing worked.



Any other ideas?

Am I going to have to cut through the caps to get at the wheel nut?



I heard that a pipe grip may be an option too, but is that not just the same as using vise-grip pliers?



Anyway, thanks in advance for any help. I am carless till I get this sorted.



Thanks



Richard
