If it's from GM take it to a dealer, most will have a master set of keys. You could try a tire store too, they would probably have the "special " sockets to remove locks. If you go that route your locks will probably be ruined. It's not really a big problem, but it might cost you a couple bucks.

most shops that change tires have tons of those keys.

because people bring cars in for tires and dont give the keys to the mechs, so they just keep a box of all kinds of keys and find the right one.

As stated above, go to Goodyear, Firestone, Discount Tire. Any of them will be able to remove them.
