One "key" to your question that you need to understand is that there is not just one style of key for Porsche OEM lugs. Like Blinkwatt mentioned there may be 30 some different designs. I know my car came with two different keys, not sure why. It drove me crazy trying to get the wrong key of the two to work until I realized they were actually different!

I recently switched to non-keyed chrome lugs for some new wheels I got. You might want to consider that if you garage your car and don't live in an area where you would worry about your wheels being stolen. You could then go to the Porsche dealer and have them break loose the keyed lug and then you could simply replace it in their parking lot with a new keyed or non-keyed lug that you've purchased. That may be one way to avoid being "raped".
