Stock rim removal
 
I'm having the hardest time located a lug nut key to take off my rims. I have touring model with the sports package. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.

Have you tried the tools in your trunk?

21mm socket should work too

Factory wheel locks on the car? the key normally is zip-tied onto one of the OEM wheel removing tools. Otherwise you may have to call the dealership.

Buy a cheap socket that fits tightly over the key lug, hammer it on then wrench the lug off and throw the two away, replace with a standard lug. This is what we do when people come to me for a brake job and don't know where the key is.

You can find lug nut removers (or extractors) at most auto parts stores for around $20 (eg, $16.99 at O'Reilly)

Are the OEM wheel locks not all the same? I bet you could go to a dealer and borrow one. If the car is new to you, check the glove box and cubby behind the passenger seat for the key. If you bought it from a dealer, call them up and ask why they didn't include the key.
