Wheel locks?
Anyone know of a good set of wheel locks (locking lugnuts, etc.) to buy?
I'm getting a set of Enkei RS-5's for my car and don't want them jacked... preferably.

do people actually steal rims?
i've never seen a "someone stole my rims" post here
they mostly go for the whole car....and honestly, its faster and takes less tools to steal the whole car.

Ive been asked numerous times by random ppl if i want to sell my wheels, makes me feel very insecure but you have a point, ive never really heard (at least recently) of just wheels getting stolen * Knock on wood*

Well it seems to happen a lot out here. Considering my CD Player and disc changer got swiped too. i.e. NOT the whole car.
Also, considering it's something worth some change on the OUTSIDE of my vehicle, I'd like to protect it if at all possible.
Thanks for the McGard idea... I also found some 5Zigen ones.

Yeah one poor soul in a EP3 around here broke down on the side of 85. Every day something new was missing. first went the wheels, then the interior, and god know what else. That was just what I could see passing buy. By the time the owner came to tow it away it was a lost cause. Thieves

I disagree. My entire car was stolen and they took the seats and some random things but they weren't able to cut the springs or take my wheels or suspension stuff. They did torch the springs but at least I still have my rims. And with only one wheel lock each
My next set of rims is definitely going to be locks all around, though.

Rays are kick ***. They look perfectly stock from a distance and come in a few different colors. However they are actually 7 sided and can only be removed with a special socket. Or a set of vice grips.
