anyone here in SEMI have a tool to get the center caps off Konig wheels? i just blew a tire today on Cherry Hill, and i've got my winter tires ready to go on, but when i bought my car, that's the one tool he didn't give to me for the wheels.
it's a 5-point star with rounded tips on the star, and a dot in the center.

i really really need this...

Torx also comes in a 5 point version with a protrusion from the center of the Torx cavity - it's called security Torx. You may have difficulty in obtaining the tool as Camcar (the company that created Torx) makes it difficult for the average Joe to get it.
