I had to get one of an old bottle top to do a rear disc swap and had no key

the nut was aluminium and it was easily mauled of with no damage to the rim , cant remember exaclty how it was done but an old screwdriver and a hammer more than likely

BMW type then, your local dealers will have a set of keys to fit these, once you have found which one it is you can order one. Or you could drill it out
